[newbie] AMD64 video cards
When I did a check for certified video cards (on MandrakeLinux website), I found there are NO video cards for AMD64! Can this be right? Thanks

[newbie] amd64 iso???
I'm a standard member. I think I goofed because I can't find the ISO for mandrake 10.0 for the amd64 chip. where do I download it? bob lester Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com
Re: [newbie] amd64 iso???
Call me ignorant, but doesn't the ISO distro automatically detect which arch you have? I don't know if this applies to anything other than IA32, or AMD64. If you can, get hold of a live Linux iso - one of them that runs off a CD + RAM. If it works, then theres a good chance others will too :-) Hope this helps, Ali --- robert lester [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm a standard member.

No, AMD64 is an entirely different set of CDs. Every package is recompiled for 64-bit AMD64 instruction set. To the original poster, don't know about the club, but the RC1-level RPMs and iso's can be found at the normal mirror sites. pair, raven and warwick have them (amongst others, but those are the ones I use.) -- Guy Rouillier Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] AMD64 and K8V Bios Issues - help!
From: Rory Gleeson [EMAIL PROTECTED] I can't get MDK10 to do a full install. I've used these discs before without issue. It starts to install correctly. However, after partitioning (I've tried this on two HDs with the same result), it starts to install the files. During this copying period, each time it stalls, the CD stops having files retrieved and the HD stops working. It stops at a different place each time. I am very new to Mdk so these ideas might not be useful. Are you sure the CD's are good? I have burned CD's that didn't mention errors during the burn but when I compared the ISO to the CD there were files that didn't match. Can you see any error logs? Some times you can see error logs if you press Ctrl+Alt+F3 (or Ctrl+Alt+F4 I can't remember which). On my system I have to use the Ctrl+Alt on the left side of the keyboard. The Ctrl+Alt on the right side have no effect. These keys switch to a text mode console that shows error messages. To get back to the graphic I use Ctrl+Alt+F7 (or F6). Have you tried installing in text mode or expert mode? There might be some more diagnostic information. Are you partitions Ok? Maybe WinXP setup a partition that MDK doesn't understand. Since you have removed all the software from the disk anyway, why not try deleting all the partitions, during setup, and the repartitioning with the defaults. Have you googled for the problem? Try listing your computer name and a Mandrake 10. Stick with it mdk10 is very nice. It is much, much, much better than the last version I looked at.

I've used these discs before without issue. It starts to install correctly. However, after partitioning (I've tried this on two HDs with the same result), it starts to install the files. During this copying period, each time it stalls, the CD stops having files retrieved and the HD stops working. It stops at a different place each time. I've tweaked the K8V Deluxe motherboard without success. I turned off USB Legacy Support (which caused me an initial hang right at the beginning the install process before the graphical install started). I also turned off ACPI and APM as an experiment. If anyone has any suggestions at all, I'd really appreciate it. I think this is a small problem that I just can't identify. This purchase was my final step in dumping XP for good, but I'm a bit glum right now. By the way, XP Pro installed fine on the box without issue after my initial MDK failures. So, once I got XP running, I then erased all the partitions, knowing an OS could load, and went back to fiddling with MDK. SuSE 9.1 Live and MandrakeMove (without LAN support) installed without issue, too. Thanks, ~Rory I could be wrong, but isn't there a different version of Mdk 10 for AMD64? I seem to recall seeing release candidate announcements for it (it's a little behind the x86 version). -- Ron Hunter-Duvar ronhd at users dot sourceforge dot net Opinions expressed here are all mine.
