I have Knoppix ISO (690MB) on a CD. This is the only file on the CD. But it doesn’t boot PC. Do I need to have any extractor on the CD or extract the ISO files on CD or hard disk? Boot order of PC is O.K. If there is any other better ISO, preferably a smaller one in size, please inform that too as I have never used Linux. Does the PC setup require any changes to run Linux as currently I am using XP?
ok i have decided to try out linux, i downloded a live cd distribution, burned the iso file to a cd and tried to boot from it wont work! please tell me what i am doing wrong, and tell me how to do it correctly plz!

I have this cd and i want to run the live version of it and it just won’t work it first of all says that I don’t have the correct software–pick from a list or go on the net to find out what software is needed so i pressed net and it wouldn’t open. Then also the live thing is a zipped file I don’t know what I’m supposed to do I open it with winzip and it brings up a window to extract it but it’s not like the normal windows I tried to extract it on my flashdrive which is 512 and it says insert disk 2 so i stopped it so I don’t know what to do does anyone have any suggestions?

If the registry is blocked through windows, but you can boot from a livecd, how might you go about recovering the hashes out of the sam file? Are there any tools for linux? Can I do it manually if I mount the Hard drive? I mannually pulled the sam file, but don’t know what else to do. On my windows I have created rainbow tables ready to crack the passwords.
I would prefer not to reset passwords. I want to know the importance of Bios and if A livecd could pull hashes on one computer, giving access to all the computers admin. user.
