Hi John, I plan to use Mandrake just to connect and surf the net..email...etc.. on my desktop computer and to use it as an alternative to windows.
The size of my second hard drive is a bit more than 8GB and it has two partitions, one of them(D) is 4.04GB and has WinXP on it and the other one(E) is 4.03GB and it is empty.....that is where I would like to install Mandrake.
