Brian,

Boot off of Disk Two (I Purchased my Set from Mandrake direct), then load each
of the customized Boot Kernels until one works.

I'm not sure WHY we have to jump through hurdles to get the Install to work.

I'm still picking up bits off of the Floor.  Mozilla doesn't install directly.
I have problems with rpmdrake recognizing the cdrom ....

It really shouldn't be this difficult folks.
