It worked but, it doesn't allow me to go pass the initial setup menu where it asks about your keyboard and language. It loops kinda between those two options. I've got an idea that it might be something to do with my bios. I've got a systemsoft, MobilePro version 1.0 bios and previously had problems installing mandrake 9.2 on it due to the bios. I've been searching for an update eversince but, well, no luck.

So type the following line at boot prompt : knoppix alsa Of course, add to this line the others cheatcodes you need like brltty, lang etc .. Tell us if it works better with alsa.
