Hi Civileme, I only have one Internet connection, so I shouldn't need to use DrakProfile, right? > If you during install set up the NIC first than added a normal modem > (not a cable modem), this > would be exactly what would happen.

Again, Mandrake doesn't see my 56K modem because it's turned off.

I have just finished installing the beta 2, and it appears that I can't get as far with it as I did with M8.0.
