hmmm... If Knoppix boots, try poking around in /proc. Especially look
at how it lines up stuff in /proc/interrupts iomem and ioports. It
sounds like a resource conflict. Maybe you can pass arguments to the
Mandrake modules to resolve the conflict in a similar manner. I never
thought about using Knoppix to resolve this kind of thing until you just
mentioned it.
