Partition should be ext2. If you want the 2nd CD packages, you'll need to make another directory: Mandrake/RPMS2 and put the rpm's on CD2 there I'm using this technique now, for local installs to make sure the subset of all the packages that ends up on the 2 CD's isn't omitting any libraries or packages that may be getting masked when I do and NFS install using the whole tree.
