If you got the boxed version of Mandrake 6.1, it's on one of the RPM CD's.
If not, then maybe try stardivision.com (?) or maybe sunmicrosystems. You

you can find staroffice at

Sure...go edit your /etc/inittab to change the line that looks like
this:

to look like this:

Then you'll boot in console-mode instead of in GUI mode. :-)
you should go out to a local comp store and buy linux. yeah, it's free but
the reason that you have to pay for it is for the tech support and printed
manuals. if you go buy it, it'll save you A LOT of headaches and time.
plus, you'll get lots of utilities, a bootable cd-rom, and less stress. i
