Silly me, why didn't I think of that.

Of course I did just that and then I rechecked the "Applications" selection not
knowing that there was another UNSUPPORTED  disk thinking that perhaps someone
might have simply mislabeled the disk and "Extras" might have been "Applications".

If you're going to offer 4 disk's then support ALL of them not just the ones that
make you more money by being packaged in a power pack, if you're not going to
support this "Extras" disk SAY SO it sure would have saved a lot of "rant mail".
This disk was clearly labeled MANDRAKE if it was not one of yours then you need to
contact the distributor (www.lsl.com) if it is one of yours then how about
supporting it.

As it stands I now have NO IDEA what did and did not get installed (thanks), the
install gave absolutely no clue what selecting the wrong disk failed to install.  I
mean come on folks this is not rocket science you came SO close to making it easy
then yanked to carpet out from under me.

How about next go around if you're going to have multiple disks to install from
telling me what disk is required when I select my packages for install.   At least
I won't need to go through my entire drive trying to find a package that didn't get
installed.

I've been with Mandrake for quiet some time now and have no intention of leaving
but I'm running out of hair to loose trying to figure out something that should
have been a no brainer.
