Tried to install beta 2 of Linux-Mandrake today, everything went well 
although installation took quite some time, some minor packages like 
locales-fa took more than 1 minute to install. But this to the side.

While trying to install my HP Deskjet 720c I selected lpd as the interface 
instead of CUPS. Finally you get a window where you can select the type of 
printer you have (remote/local etc). I choose for a local printer, after 
that I press the button OK, I get a message that "one package is being 
installed" and after that the installation hangs. I try to kill X with 
control-alt-backspace which gets me to the shell. If I try to halt or reboot 
I get some error messages like "sh: cannot find shutdown" and I have to 
reset my system in order to get my computer to the land of the living. If I 
try to install without printer support I don't face any irregularities.

Greetings.
