Mandrake Install

That ranges from formatting to entering root login(which is the farthest I got) Initially I was trying 10CE, and last night figured i'll try to do a network install.

Almost ready to move to Linux :-)

Happeren
I've been trying out Mandrake lately and found it to be easier than I thought/hoped and would very much like to make the complete move to linux. Thanks to a lot of linux sites (including this one) I have almost found a linux application that replaces the one I use on Windows XP - but I am missing a few.
