Hello,
I checked the archives and didn't see this adressed:

I have the latest (January) PSKMail live CD which starts to boot on my PC 
(1+GHz Pentium + 128MB memory)

The front end of the boot process doesn't have any error messages that I saw. 
However, I get a long delay when this line starts:

 - mounting loop image on  /initrd/loopfs - 

Then the following error messages pop up:

============================
failed:invalid argument

commands were:
losetup /dev/loop0 
initrd/cdrom/livecd.sqfs
mount -r -t squashfs /dev/loop0
initrd/loopfs

drop to limited shell
==========================

I'm not overly Linux savvy, so all help is appreciated.

I have successfully run the Live CD (Knoppix) from AI9NL (Harv's Hamshack) on 
the computer.

tnx es 73
Bruce
