There is no USB support in Knoppix at boot time. So, unless the
notebook has some transparent IDE over USB emulation (which would work
without USB drivers), booting Knoppix from CD is impossible on this
machine.
If you have a (v)fat partition on the hard disk, you can create a
directory "KNOPPIX" on that partition and copy the 500MB file "KNOPPIX"
from the c't CD into it. After that, boot the Knoppix floppy.
bye,
Chris
