First question, Why are you running Linux in win
mode????? this hardly even captures the power that
linux offeres..., second, what are your system's
specs, there often there for a reason,Many people
think that they can just ignore the minimum,
requirements, that the vender clearly displays on the
box..... but anyway to the message it's self, If it is
unable to mount root, this is probably, because either
your HD or your cd-rom are not supported, can't really
tell which, would look into it more deeply, perhaps
check some faq files at mandrakes website,
www.linux-mandrake.com
