Troops,
I'm feeling pretty hot tonight. I successfully downloaded the mandrake 6.1.iso,
burned it to a cd and installed it as an upgrade to my linux side of the
house. As far as I can tell the install went perfectly. I've been following
some of the posts and all I can say is that the iso I copied had the latest
Xfree (3.3.5 I believe). One unusual thing happened. When I told it to
upgrade my icons it double posted quite a few of them. By the way this way my
first attempt at burning a data file.
Now to my sin. I copied the file and burned it using windows. I've been
tempted by the dark side and succumbed. Will using a linux cd created
from the dark side of the force taint my linux box? If so, how do I drive
the curse from my system.
I noticed that the new version installed cd-roast as one of the new files. I
think my problem wirh getting my cd burner going in linux is that I'm not
emulating a scuzzy drive. After the dust settles a bit I make seek a blow by
blow on how to configure my linux system to burn a cd.
