Hello Pixel,
sorry to bother you but could you please tell me the next steps to take?

I have just downloaded the entire COOKER directory from the Mandrake-Developer
and am readdy to try to install the 115Meg onto a Linux partition that I have.

Where do I find this "floppy" image on which to place the "auto_inst.cfg"
Could only find "auto_inst.cfg.pl" in the cooker directory.
Is this just one of the regular boot/net/hd install images?
Cheers,
Lonnie
