Re: [ilugd] problem with knoppix

2003-08-14 Thread Robins Tharakan
during the process of installation! could you please elaborate?
is it during hard disk recognition? monitor recognition? sound/graphics
card

i have heard about problems with LiFy distributions, although knoppix
should have worked fine. please if possible do try another distribution.
the next meet is up on 24th (i think!) do ask someone for a distribution
you dont have and give that a try. i can only lend you my cds if need
be...

you can quite easily run linux from another partition, and frankly that
is the preferred way to work, although that involves partitioning your
existing partition into two or more... if you are comfortable. good. the
installation generally has software and provisions to do it.. you just
need to have the courage to say yes!! ;) just kidding... but yes,
partitioning is the best way to go about it (stability wise).

 solve this problem. Can I install linux on a different partition and run it normally 
 from the boot, like in windows. Please advice.

If you have an older monitor, there have been problems
with knoppix booting into the graphical interface (x).
On newer monitors, an out of range or out of
frequency error comes in coz the firmware is updated,

but with older monitor there isnt any such problem.

I suggest you check it by booting into the knoppix
text only, using the option on the boot menu (where
you can specify the resolution etc..)
