Hi, The CDs of Mandrake 10.1 were sent to Compugal this morning. Those are the same 3, original CDs of Mandrake 10.1 CE without any change.
The file that I attached is the packages selection of Mandrake (the file
which Mandrake creates in a floppy drive when you choose to save your
packages selection).
I couldn't make any change to the CDs, although I wanted to add that file
to the CD, and to add a g++ extension to the 3rd CD. Any change would
give me an installation failure, so I had to stay with the original CDs.
This brings a conclusion that the packages which Shachar and I selected,
can only be load via a floppy, originally like Mandrake lets us do.
It can be done via one of the two ways:
1) While seeing the first, main screen, you should press the 'F1' key, and
when the text screen shows up, you should write: linux defcfg=floppy
As a result, the packages selection will be loaded from the floppy disk,
when the screen of the packages shows up.
2) Begin the installation as usual, until packages selection screen. When
you are there, choose "individual packages selection", click on "next",
and press on the icon of the diskette. It will ask you to either save the
packages selection or to load them from the diskette. Choose to load them.
For some unknown reason, while choosing the first option, it gives a total
selection of ~3.3GB, and the 2nd options gives ~2.5GB although both are
the same selections and they are installed at the same time. Whatsoever,
choose any of the options during the installation time, at your own
convinience.
Regards,
Adir.
PS. If you plan to be an installer in the instaparty, first of all, please
contact me in private, and 2nd, please bring a diskette with that file
attached, so we won't have to run after diskettes (although I will bring
some to the instaparty as well).
