Well, I purchased MDKLinux 7.1 Complete which only include the installation
disk and application.   I had tried installing it on my Old 166 mhz IBM
Aptiva.  When I got to the end and it ask for the application CD.  My CD-Rom
wouldnt open.   and along side with that.   My X-windows would not get
installed.   At first  I thought maybe the disk were damaged because I had
installed 6.1 on it with no problem.   So   I thought well  I'll try it on
my newer computer which is 533 Intel Celeron and surprisingly It installed
everything including the application CD.  and Everything is working
beautifully.   So  my guess is that my old computer is too outdated for the
MDKLinux 7.1.
