Knoppix??
Ok i just downloaded and burnt knoppix 3.7 onto a cd and started it up. I want access to my hard drive and when i do:
It gives me the error
can't find /mnt/hda1 in etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
What is the problem?? Why cant i mount my hardrive to get access to my files?
The other problem is that i have a cable connection and when i start and run my box using Windows the interent and connections all work just fine. I am not using any type of proxy. When i use Knoppix, i cant connect to anything...I have looked in preferences to see how to change connection or whatnot but i cant find anything that will work. Any suggestions??

I'm pretty sure that your hard drive is already mounted, at least it was for me when I used knoppix. And you probably have to set up your cable connection, unless you're on a wired network.

help
I go to /mnt/ and look for hd or hda or hda1 and i found hd, however, nothing is in it. Thats the only hardrive directory i found. And i want to be able to access my files on my hardrive. I just got the interent to work so that is no longer a problem. Any suggestions about the hardrive will be greatly appreciated.

When I used knoppix it automatically created desktop icons to the hard drives. See if any of them work fresh from boot-up.

The hard drive isnt on the desktop. CD-ROM and floppy are on there, but not the hard drive.

As suggested earlier, you could try to boot using the knoppix 2.6 kernel. It sounds like an incorrect module is being used by the 2.4 kernel for your harddisk.

Sounds good , but should note that you have to be in root to mount.
For VFAT file system:
sudo mount /dev/hda1 /mnt/hd
For NTFS
sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /mnt/hd

Ok, looks like a SATA disk and controller to me, and as I don't use one myself I hope someone with experience with these picks up on this thread.
Try one of the following boot codes:
knoppix26 acpi=off
knoppix26 noapic
knoppix acpi=off
knoppix noapic
You could also try to set the SATA drives option in BIOS to combination mode.
