Feeling a bit peeved last week because the other distibutions brought out KDE 
2.1 before Mandrake did, I decided to give RedHat 7.0 a try.

I couldn't install it!  Whereas Mandrake sees my Promise ATA100 controller, 
RedHat claimed I couldn't do a hard disk install because I didn't appear to 
have any hard disks.  I had to use a drivers disk to get my Adaptec 2940UA 
recognised but the RPMs were on one of the Promise disks and they didn't have 
a driver for that.

Caldera wouldn't play either.

I think we all take for granted the excellent hardware support provided by 
Mandrake in its distributions and I congratulate them on their great work.

Regards,
Peter
