I'm having a problem with Software Manager with Mandrake 8.1 on my new
computer, which I dont have on the old computer.

When I try to install a package not on the loaded disk, a prompt asks
for a different disk. It must still be mounted though, because I cant
eject and change the disk. I can only do so if I su to root and umount.

The old computer is a PII 266 on some generic MB, using ext2.
The new one is a 1.13 Athalon on an ECS K7S5A, using ext2 on /, and ext3
on the other partitions. (I had problems booting using ext3 on the /
partition).

Any help would be welcome.

Thanks,

Gene
