[newbie] rpm drake

2003-03-31 Thread Rachel
Anyone know what I can do about rpm drake? It still says "already installed" even after I wiped out the whole system and put Mandrake 9 in fresh. I tried the urpmi code given at the Mandrake Expert site but it gave me an error, 'could not find cdrom8'. Argh Thanks,

[newbie] Modem awol

Hi, How do I install - manually, a modem on Mandrake 9? It was installed before. Its a crappy 28k. I tried to install two different 56k's but they were not 'seen' and suprisingly this isn't either. It's given me a massive headache. Also, about SAMBA - how do I set up username passwords again
