I'm using Mandrake 9.2 on a SATA drive, but I've never tried booting from it. I also have a small drive that I have as a boot drive, and from windows. I've just downloaded Mandrake 10 and was impressed with the speed it did download - after I'd changed the upload rate. 2 GB in about 22 hours. Finally, you'll probably get more responses if you don't upset everyone - people here tend to get upset if you ignore the long-standing convention by top-posting. Paul M
