Yep. But defrag your Windows partitions before you start. Unless you have a spare partition to put Mandrake on it will have to resize your existing Windows partition. If you have files scattered all over the disc the installer will not be able to find enough space to put the partition in. Mandrake can resize NTFS partions OK, but cannot write to them (reliably) so if there is any data you want to share between Windows and Mandrake, then put it on a FAT32 partition. The Mandrake installer can make partitions for you. derek -- -- www.jennings.homelinux.net Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com
