the question is will there ever be any support for mandrake and the PPC?
if not is there a possible way i can help with using my little imac as a
ginnie pig?
if so what do i need to do to get started?

 Hello Cooker,
 On install of mdk 7.2 (final?), Diskdrake ate my Windows 2000 partition -
 any suggestions?  I did an expert install on a 13GB drive where Windows
 occupied the first half of the drive.  When I got to diskdrake, I created a
 swap and a "/" partition in my free space and chose only to format those two
 partitions.  An error message popped up (nothing discriptive) and then all
 my partitions were gone.  I hit 'exit installation' from the side bar
 instead of using any of the options on diskdrake and when I booted back up,
 windows was gone.  I've done this several times in the past, so it wasn't a
 'slip of the mouse'.

well i like to assure everyone one who did this version of mdk 7.2

it's superior os from my point of view

my system is a pentuim2 400 mghz
256megs of ram
voodoo5
sb live
and cable modem for the network access

and i have ran this os for atleast 2 days now

[Cooker] mandrake 7.1, an idea and comment

2000-05-02 Thread kallador



well i would fully install mandrake linux 7.1 but i 
have no room
not enogh space
and 2) i cant launch lin4win
cause i use windows2000
witch doesnt support dos

windows even win2k with a boot diskette
for lin4win. Like BeOS5.0 does


i like to also say the installer Graphic installer 
is alot stable then in 
Mandrake 7.0 from my

 shut down your system? try /sbin/halt as root.

 Well, there are the PCTel modems which have their own linux
 drivers, and there is the linmodem project which concentrates on
 using the beasties for computer-driven telephony.
 
 I think every ISP on the list will say what I am about to say:
 
 If you can afford a real modem, use it.  Don't even think about a
 winmodem, not even under windows.
 
 There are many problems with winmodems, the biggest come when you
 try an on-line graphic game and thew modem software gets swapped to
 disk because the memory is needed to drive graphics, or some
 time-critical loop in the game display won't let the modem software
 run at the speed needed.
 
 There are others as well, depending on the type of switch the telco
 is using, the distance you are from the CO, etc.
 
 A winmodem driven by the most efficient software under the best
 possible operating system with a Gig or so of main memory STILL
 will not perform with its $3 chipset to the standards of a real
 modem with its $40 Chipset and supporting hardware.  Windows masks
 the differences by reporting the same speed regardless of what is
 really happening.
 
 But if you can afford nothing better, there are a few supported
 linmodems.
