My favourite recommendations are a) These 2 books by Mandrake which you have on your hard drive, accessible from file:///usr/share/doc/mandrake/en/index.html. I even went so far as to download them in pdf format from the Mandrake website and print them our in a 4-in-1 format. The troubleshooting section in the reference manual has come in very handy many times! I've apprecitated having that in a printed format :-) b) http://www.mandrakeuser.org Good luck, Narfi.
