Hi out there at the screens ! After struggling one week getting a dual-boot PC installed with NT 4.0 and man8.1 (and finally succeeding ;-) ) I'm starting to exploring the mandrake-system. I did the install in expert mode and chose the packages one by one. But I didn't write it all down. Now I am wondering whether there is some list out there listing all the packages in the 3-CD-edition. (I know I might be able to get it by hand from the cd looking for all the rpm-files, then searching for each package in the web...). Ideally I would look for a list sorting the packages by area (as done in the install GUI), providing a short description of the package and maybe a link to the project's home site... I just want to find out what packages I really need and what some packages are really for (vim, postgresql, apache, samba - thats all obvious, but there were also a lot packages I encountered the fist time).
I googled for such a list - nothing (just some compile list for PPC-packages). I searched the mandrake-website (search-function, product area m8.1) - nothing. I had the same question some time ago for the cygwin packages and I got from the mailing list some nice links (on private sites and lists). Thanx in advance from Berlin Oliver Thieke
