Hi,
I seem not to be able to boot Musix 0.59 CD even though several other live linux CD's boot just fine. I noticed that someone had a similar problem with Musix 0.50:
https://lists.ourproject.org/pipermail/musix-users/2006-August/000280.html
In that previous case, the user managed to boot the CD on a different computer. However, I only have one computer to play with, and thus would like to hear if there is anything I could do.
Was there any conclusion about the problem with Musix 0.50?
No, just that: "I downloaded the 0.50 iso image at work, burned it with cdrecord, and it booted successfully. The problem seems to be with my PC at home. Sorry to bother you with this. By the way . . . 0.50 is very impressive! Nice work! "
If booting the CD just does not work for me, is there any workaround, i.e., boot from floppy or HD (just remember that I can not boot the CD to create such floppies)?
Yes: I have no floppy here, I dont use them, but, it's possible, try using: /KNOPPIX/utils/* From: /KNOPPIX/knoppix-docs/KNOPPIX-FAQ-EN.txt "Q: My computer won't boot from CD. What should I do? A: Look in your computer's BIOS to see whether it's set to boot from CD (on most computers you need to push the "delete" key during the RAM test). If this is already set, your computer may not be able to read the CD (some notebooks have problems with black-coated CD's, for example). Some computers will only use the new BIOS settings after a hard reset. If your computer doesn't support booting from CD, you can create a boot floppy using the "mkbootfloppy" program. " I think it's talking about: /KNOPPIX/utils/MkImage-ct.exe
Thank you in advance,
Tell us it it's works for you
