installing knoppix on HD


Hi,
I've just download the last knoppix (3.7), I tried to use the same way
as with 3.6
to install it on HD. But it failed at reboot with following errors:

can't find ext3 on dev ....
cat't find vfat on dev .... ( no vfat partition in my HD)

kernel panic...


I rebooted with rescue RedHat 9.0 ( I don't know how to do it with
debian ) , after mount and chroot to /dev/hda1 ( the root is here)
I could run correctly the graphical interface. So the installation is
complete, but the master boot was n't installed correctly ???



thank you for help
bela

I had a similar experience with Gnoppix a while ago, so it might be a bug you should report to the Knoppix folks.

did you try and reinstall a boot loader (grub or lilo)?
