Solved: Knoppix v3.4 CD Question
I went out and purchased O'Reilly's Knoppix Hacks with the 3.4 CD.

During the course of trying to make Knoppix v3.4 work from the Knoppix Hacks O'Reilly boot with the CD, it kept getting:
Disk error 10, AX=4280 drive EF or
Disk error 10, AX=4200 drive EF

It gets that error even when I type in from the boot prompt (below):
boot: knoppix testcd

Does this mean that the Knoppix v3.4 CD is corrupt or bad?

Turns out I must have scratched the (working side - back) of the CD when I opened the container folder with a knife at the back of the book - my bad!

Lesson learned - never open a CD pack with a knife.
