I have downloaded the 5.1.1 version of knoppix. I use windows XP. I have downloaded the .iso file of knoppix. I read that I have to burn it on a CD. I did it on a DVD but it’s the live cd version of linux. I restarted my computer, and instead of using linux, the windows xp starts, as always. I read I have to go on the BIOS and change the order to startup between the hardrive and the cd player, or something like that. But I don’t know how to enter the BIOS, and when I start my computer, the screen is all dark till windows starts, so I can’t type F12 or another command to access the BIOS. My question is : How can I start up Knoppix? Or, how can I enter the BIOS, and how exactly must I do to change the order of startup between the hardrive and the CD player. Thanks in advance.
Thanks. I could enter the BIOS with F2, but it says that my DVD/CD player would start before the hard drive. Therefore I don’t understand why it doesn’t start. I’m still blocked.
Oh, I think I know what the problem is. It’s because I burned the .iso file as a data file and not an image. I must buy a CD and burn the .iso file on it, as an image, since I can’t from a DVD. Thanks to all.
