OK that works. :-) I have booted from USB floppy and then worked with a cloop filesystem on a USB harddisk. I have booted from USB Harddisk and then the script find the KNOPPIX file on the USB Harddisk. The attached file linuxrc has some problems to go back to KNOPPIX: I have rename the /modules/scsi to /modules/bootmod. - The USB module needs time after loading, before linuxrc can search the knoppix cloop file. The search for the cloop filesystem runs in a loop. So I never fall to the "(very limited) shell". :-( - Space on boot disk. :-( - Unfortunately I can not test the patch with a USB cdrom. My USB cdrom does not work with linux. :-( Additional I have problems with great files (example: /cdrom/KNOPPIX/KNOPPIX) to copy on the USB Harddisk. It seams to be a kernel problem. It this a well known problem? All this works only with USB 1.1. It seams that the kernel people work on USB 2.0 (EHCI) for kernel 2.4.21. Has anyone a USB 2.0 device running with linux? Speed? I have tested the boot with 2 Intel 845 based Motherboards. One has Intel/Ami, one has Phoenix/Phoenix BIOS, both seams to boot with USB 1.1 Has someone a board that boot with USB 2.0 speed? bye Andreas
