Hi All Thanks to those that replied on my previous issue "1st Stage Install Failure". For the record, I solved my CD-ROM failure to be recognized by hooking it up as a MASTER on the PRIMARY channel... However, A NEW PROBLEM: (Mandrake 7.2) After the CDROM has been detected, it says - Initializing CDROM to be followed by some heavy CD reading for approx. 20s, then - Install Existed Abnormally - recieved error 9 Does anybody have ANY idea what this means???? Where are the programmers???? I have looked on many lists but can't find any answers to this. Thanks johan
