Hi Matt,

Make that

nodma
or perhaps:

nodma noscsi
at the boot prompt.

Sorry about this afternoon's post. I was flying blind.

"nodma" is actually a label for a more complicated boot command. The file isolinux.cfg on the CD shows what switches the full command is using:

Code:
DEFAULT oztivo
TIMEOUT 50
PROMPT 1
DISPLAY boot.msg
F1 boot.msg
F2 f2

LABEL oztivo
KERNEL bzImage
APPEND 2 ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off hda=bswap hdb=bswap hdc=bswap hdd=bswap hde=bswap hdf=bswap hdg=bswap hdh=bswap vga=788 initrd=miniroot.gz nomce dma BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix

LABEL nobswap
KERNEL bzImage
APPEND 2 ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=788 initrd=miniroot.gz nomce dma BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix

LABEL nodma
KERNEL bzImage
APPEND 2 ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off vga=788 initrd=miniroot.gz nomce ide=nodma BOOT_IMAGE=knoppix
So to play with these values you'll need to use a full command starting like this:

bzImage 2 ramdisk_size=...
HTH more than earlier.

Cheers, Dave.
