Hi: I am curious.
I just installed Mandrake 7.0 on six of my machines. All but one went
without a flaw. One did not allow the X-Window to come upon install,
so I fuddeled around and got it to allow a text install. As it is in a closet
and does not require a perminate monitor, this is fine. What were you
problems again.
