I think you'd better tell us what some of that doodookaka actually says :)

What version of Knoppix ?
ISTR there's a disk size limit of around 2Tb+ after which you need a UEFI BIOS
to handle the drive - or at least a BIOS that can handle GPT partition format
disks.
What's the motherboard in this machine ?

I think my first move would be to physically disconnect the 3 smaller drives,
and try booting then - just the data cables, you can leave the power cables
connected if that helps. Bet you've tried that by now :)
