Dual boot knoppix winxp issue

<< < (2/2)

hnugz:
even after changing the boot order in the bios it still wouldn't load.  I finally reinstalled and as far as I can tell the only change I made was to make the boot disk instead of skip it.  I know get the boot loader.  Now im getting all kinds of weird stuff happening, like it starting in command prompt mode (it wont even go to the gui with startx, i get an error) and my whole system will freeze after like 20 minutes.  ::sigh::

all I did to install is get the live cd, boot it up, ctrl+alt+f1, and then sudo knoppix-installer.  that will get it going.  I dont have these problems on my laptop.

Orethrius:
Try init 4 from root login instead of startx.  If this works, it might just be privs.  WMD should have some idea how to fix this.
