While building my new PC I ran into an interesting problem trying to 
boot a live Linux CD - at least all of the ones I tried.

Many motherboards are using the Marvell IDE controller - which is 
currently not supported by most Linux distributions.

So while it starts booting fine, when it hands off to the kernel 
everything comes to a screeching halt because it cannot find the CD.



I found pendrivelinux.com that helped me with w very quick boot from USB 
solution.


Funny enough, it was the Knoppix screen shot that Andrew posted that I 
had been seeing for the past few days.


And all I wanted - fdisk

<sigh>
