HD Install :: can't boot
Hallo,
I finally copied my DSL to my HD (3 Partitions (all FAT), System (90MB), Data (200MB), Swap (15MB)).
The DSL-Files are onthe c: drive which is the System partition an in the exact same order like on the cd.
I've tried syslinux, tomsbttr,.... but I just can't boot the Linux Kernel!!!
I've got no cd-drive just a floppy but a parallel and/or a pcmcia network!
Just don't know what to do now!!!
Please Help me!
Thx:)!
Have a look at the postings under
Damn Small Linux user Board » Damn Small Linux » HD Install » i have no floopy,no cdrom, only hd,can i?
Hopefully you will get the idea 
As long as there is a knoppix directory and you make a boot disk you should get it to run.
Tomsrtbt will allow you to use dd to make the boot disk.
