Axalon....there's a significant thread here that I guess you
missed, try the archives. A group of us has been discussing
supermount problems for over a week now and you've not been
contributing at all (nor has anyone else from MandrakeSoft).
Brian is rightfully upset when you accuse him directly of not
careing to learn as should be all of us who have been involved
in this thread. You talk about disc 3 to a bunch of folks who
either downloaded an iso or bought a GPL? Probably no one here
has a powerpack that, by the way was only announced as available
on February 28th which was less than a week and a half ago.
I think you owe Brian and all the rest of us involved in the
supermount thread a big apology! We've been trying very hard,
with no help from any mandrakeSoft personel, to work out the
problems that people have been having with supermount.
