OK, I tried again with R5A15.  Same error but this time I think I know 
what's going on.  The actual error comes after the line "Enabling DMA 
acceleration for: hda".  The the next line is "Accessing KNOPPIX CDROM 
at /dev/hda...insmod: error inserting '/modules/cloop.o': -1 Out of 
memory".  So I guess my CD drive doesn't support DMA acceleration.  Any 
ways around this?

Thanks,

Drew
