Most painless install I've ever experienced. including a few of the many windows installs I've done over the years. Win2K Professional being the easiest for that platform.
Regrettably I could not get Mandrake 9.0 to work successfully on my laptop, and the problem is in the IDE detection code. I have already posted some information about the symptoms I saw, perhaps they will be useful to the folks at Mandrake. It seems that the kernel they built does not properly support the ICH3M chipset: I would love to see the exact errors the rest of you are getting.
