One other request if it is possible. I use an ls-120 drive
exclusively and mandrake uses it just fine just like it
would a floppy. even when I'm installing cooker I do it all
from my ls-120 accept one problem. When it comes time to
make a boot disk during the install, the install doesn't
recognize my ls-120 because it is looking for /dev/fd0 and
not /dev/hdd. On my system my ls-120 is /dev/hdd.
