That's a really useful report. You really aren't clear what hardware is in what machines. What error messages you are getting etc.. > This is a real disaster - stay away from 9.0.

Why do you always feel the need to spew incorrect information? mirrors are choosing not to carry 8.2 and older. Mandrake however does still put these up. They are in the Mandrake-old tree and everything back to 7.2 is in that tree. carroll.cac.psu.edu carries Mandrake-old as do a number of other sites. Do a search for Mandrake-old on google. I have no idea what you mean about ATA 100+ drives. I've got an 8.1 box with an ATA 133 drive in it. Granted the box is running the 8.2 kernel. But if that's the case then 8.2 should work fine for those people. -- Ben Reser <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://ben.reser.org Never take no as an answer from someone who isn't authorized to say yes.
