When I first saw that slide bar, I did not have a clue of what to do... since I had space on my HD, I just moved the slider all the way to the right. I assume a lot of others did the same. Now, is the slide bar mentioned in the manual? I did not read the manual prior to installing, but then again I had a download disk, not a packaged distro. And who RTFM anyway? Maybe an "on-the-fly" explanation of what the slide bar means is in order... And are the "grades" Mandrakesoft gives each package available anywhere? I would like to check those grades out.
