Hi, I apologize if this has been asked before (I'm sure it has-) but: I downloaded the entire mandrake 7.1 directory via cuteFTP, from the tucows site. I saved in to a W98 HD and tried to do a HD install from it, after making the HD-boot floppy. Every single time, it quits after the package install dialog appears, telling me, "depslist.ordered conflict (or incompatible, same idea) with HD file lists". I have tried changing the case of the file names in W98, as suggested on comp.os.linux.misc, but it makes no difference. What the heck? If it matters, I'm trying to do a clean reinstall on a 17G HD-. thanks! james [EMAIL PROTECTED]
