I miss the "Windows" security level choice. 8-)
I too had no problems installing except that it would not use my PS/2 mouse
(neither would oxygen or cooker) (the installer would detect it, but the
cursor was frozen). A temporary switch to a serial mouse had everything
installing fine, and mouseconfig "fixed" it back to the PS/2 mouse after the
install. (Also, did an upgrade from cooker and from oxygen with no
problems - did not try it from 6.x) Of all the gui installs (Mandrake,
Caldera, Corel, RedHat), I do like Mandrake the best, although they all are
nice, but all can use a little more tweaking.
I only wish that there was a 386/486 version so I could install it on my
other machines instead of wresting with RedHat 6.1 - a very broken install
on that one.
BTW, my CD was burned from an .iso using cdrecord.
Since there is to be a fix to the .iso image, will the rawritwwin dosutil be
fixed (the missing .dll added?) Also, is the autoboot image OK? - I haven't
tried it.
