Hello yet again everyone I have posted this message before, but I'm getting real desperate. This is my last attempt at installing Linux as I can't go any further. I don't even know what the following error message means, therefore can't find a solution (what is a rate?). I've searched and searched the net; this mailing list's archives; asked Mandrake Experts (no reply); searched and searched some more, but I am STUCK and can't go any further. I'm starting to wonder if it is worth the time and effort I have already put into it! I have tried six times to intall Mandrake 8.0 but the same error message is displayed at the same stage of the install process. I am STILL trying to install from hard drive. After creating a native linux partition and booting with a boot disk (hd.img), I selected install to own partition (linux native partition). All goes well for a while and then an error message comes up: Error An error occurred missing rate for "<!-- Beginning of: /www/htdocs/images/HEADER/dirheader.html -->" Can anyone tell me what this means? I went back into Windows and searched thru the entire "Linux" directory of files that I downloaded for a file named htdocs or dirheader.html but found nothing. I'm kind of at a loss as to what to do. I've search thru the net for clues but again found nothing. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks. Skinky
