One might wonder if the DVD is borked, but then you said you had the same problem with RedHat... did you burn both?  Is it possible your burns are bad?  Do they boot on another PC?

I tried a fedora dvd, fedora cds, the knoppix dvd, and the knoppix 3.9 cd.  I am having issues with the dvds but the cds do work in my other pc so I know it should install.

hnugz:
Just as an added note, I tried running the 3.9 cd using virtual pc and I get the following errors:

Audit(1158009232.547:0): initialized
isapnp:checksum for device 1 is not valid (0x89)
isapnp:checksum for device 2 is not valid (0xbe)

Could this be an issue with the core 2 duo e6400?


*Edit - I was able to run the live 3,9 knoppix cd using vmware.  Weird that it won't work just trying to boot.  Anyway that gives me more things to play around with.  Thanks.

mobrien_12:
Just as an experiment, you might try disabling   DMA on the  IDE channels in the BIOS  before booting to Knoppix.

Orethrius:
The only thing I can think of is that the discs were burned as "Data" rather than "From Image".  Sorry.  :(

that wouldnt be it because it boots the first bit, and then drops to a shell (which would have to be from the CD)

....not that i can be of any help to the actual problem.
