It would appear that on Jan 17, Joe(theWordy)Philbrook did say:

Well I said I'd post the results... there is both bad and good news. 

The md5sum results for the 4 "Download" iso files matched the ones on
the mirror, so I burned them and attempted to install...

I started getting installation errors shortly after inserting CD2.  After
several of these I chose not to continue... 

Then I decided to try to upgrade an existing MDK installation. So I
restored the venerable MDK 8.2 from a tar backup. I edited it's fstab to
reflect the current partition. And added it to my grub.conf and fired it
up to make sure it was working. (It was!) 

Then I decided to try to upgrade from the powerpack cd set first. Which
upgrade proceeded normally until just after it let me make a lilo boot
floppy. Then the installer crashed.

The good news is that MDK 10.1 now boots. The bad news is there are
errors during the boot process that I don't understand. I'll address
them in separate threads.
