Downloaded Knoppix 3.9 LIVE boot CD, not working...

Hi guys, I am trying to get knoppix live boot cd to work, when I put it in and reboot my pc, which uses windows xp home or pro (I tried on three pc's), it comes to the boot screen, press F2 or F3 for settings or press enter to enter live boot, so I press enter, and it shows lots of error -3 in white text and then it STOPS when it displays a RED text error/warning:

Error: Cannot Unite Read-Only Meadia and Initial ramdisk.

What the heck does this mean?

I burned the Knoppix 3.9 Linux Live Boot CD to a 700 MB CD-R, and I have PLENTY of disk space on my windows system.

Am I stupposed to have a UNFORMATTED area, is that what this error means or what? I have a 80 gig hard drive on one pc and 60 gig on my laptop, it didn't work on either, and both system's use windows XP Pro SP2 and the ENTIRE hard drive is formatted to ONE partition right now.

Any ideas what this error is, or do I have a bad copy of knoppix?
