I have downloaded and burnt first CD once more. But the same thing happened ! Strange point is I can easily install MDK 10.0 CE (but by means of that firstly second CD after that first CD install method ) I think that may be the clue. I could be wrong, but I did hear that CD1 and CD2 of 10.0 had different boot setups, with CD2 being able to handle older and/or slightly non-confirming CD drives. I think there's a way of creating a boot floppy disk from the CD, but I can't tell you exactly how to do it. I'm sure someone else will be able to.

Just look on the 1st CD, there should be a dir called 'images' with floppy images and instructions on how to use them. -- JoeHill / RLU #282046 / www.freeyourmachine.org 13:04:45 up 99 days, 13:56, 5 users, load average: 2.48, 2.42, 2.16 +++ Behind every great fortune is a crime. -- Balzac Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
