I downloaded the new files in /base + gi_hd.img. Wov, Gold is a worthy name
for this piece of art! I can now go so far as to partitioning and mounting.
After rebooting the partitions are there but the mount points have
disappeared. I give the mount points and reboot; again the mount points have
disappeared, etc. in a loop. If I do not reboot, I get: mount failed. I
install Custom.

My 13.2 Gb disk is: 2.0 Gb vfat (/dev/hda1), 2.5 Gb vfat (/dev/hda5,
contains /Mandrake), 15 Mb /boot, 1.5 Gb / and 64 Mb swap, the rest empty. I
also tried without /boot, no success, mount fails. Tried Recommended and
auto-partitioning but failed as above.

The not yet updated boot.img is still a mess; after trying to read from
/dev/hda5 there is a blue screen and
    /tmp.raid0.o: a module named raid0 already exists
    /tmp.raid1.o: a module named raid1 already exists
and all the processes are killed.

Alt-F2 shows:  exec: No such file or directory

Alt-F3 shows: going to insmod raidx(0, 1, 1, 5, 5) (path is NULL)

Alt-F4 shows:
    ATAPI device hdc:
    Error: Not ready -- (Sense Key=0x02)
    Raidx(0, 1, 5) personality registered

Why does it try to read from CD-ROM? I'm installing from hard drive.
I have no problems with Mandrake 6.0 when installing from cdrom.

Sorry to answer so late, but there are the time zones... You are working
when I am sleeping and vice versa.
