just to keep you posted this is what i have tried so far
hasnt worked yet tried heaps of different things mandrake has been acting slow and buggy i may end just sticking with knoppix instead. boot=/dev/hdc map=/boot/map install=menu default=linux keytable=/boot/us.klt prompt nowarn timeout=300 message=/boot/message menu-scheme=wb:bw:wb:bw image=/boot/vmlinuz label=linux root=/dev/hdc6 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="quiet devfs=mount hda=ide-scsi acpi=off" vga=788 read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label=linux-nonfb root=/dev/hdc6 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="devfs=mount hda=ide-scsi acpi=off" read-only image=/boot/vmlinuz label=failsafe root=/dev/hdc6 initrd=/boot/initrd.img append="failsafe devfs=nomount hda=ide-scsi acpi=off" read-only other=/dev/hdc1 label="windows_xp" table=/dev/hdc image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-xfs label=knoppix root=/dev/hdd5 initrd=/boot/initrd.gz append ="apm=power-off" read-only |
