[Cooker] Is Mandrake 6.1b Cooker and how to install?

[Sam Gentile]

I am doing this completely from StarOffice and Linux. First time off 
the NT machine for mail! Hope it works!

Yesterday, on the Boston miror, I found a directory, 6.1b. Is this 
cooker? How do I install this? How do I update my existing Mandrake 
system with all of the dependecies? For instance, I boot directly into 
KDE so how would I update the KDE stuff? The X stuff? I am foreced to 
download all these files one by one through Netscape and FTP.

Any help greatly appreciated!
