Problem 2 Solved 
 
Adding "noapic" to lilo.conf stopped the periodic X crashes. The system is rock-solid 
now, 
everything works fine. Correctly detected cdrw/cdrom (Mdk 9.0 had problem with that) 
 
I hope "noapic" is made default.... with an option during install for those who might 
need it, 
plus a warning that it may render the system unstable.

description: 
Using Mdk 9.1-rc1 on Athlon XP 2000+, Via KT4V (via kt400 chipset) mainboard,
Geforce4 Mx grapcics card.  Following issues with X:

1. During installation, graphics card was detected fine and I selected NOT to
start X at boot.  When I logged in and typed "startx", X failed.
Using "su" to login as root and then starting X worked okay, and there after
logging in as a user also started X.

2. X keeps crashing periodically... using "startx" to start X (defaults to KDE)
all the control (keyboard/mouse) is lost and have to hard boot. If X is started
on startup (choosing Gnome), X does crash periodically, but moving the mouse,
restarts X sending me back to the login screen
