tom$ cat /etc/mandrake-release
Mandrake Linux release 9.1 (Cooker) for i586
It's been sayin that for over a month now. Ya know I wouldn't
remember till just after I hit the send button, but there's another
variable in how I added the new HDD and formatted ext3. At the time it
was a very recent 9.0 install, very few cooker rpms at that point. So I
saved my /home/tom/, and did an expert-reinstall and used diskdrake to
setup the new drive during the install. Still haven't gotten around to
installing Windoze in the fat32 partition I made ;> I used ext3 'cause
I've got d/l RedHat 8.0 CD's, but I haven't gotten around to those
either ;)
There's a bunch of us usin 9.1 cooker as our daily driver. Except
for a few minor glitches that have never lasted more'n a day till the
next updates are on the mirrors, I've found it to be just as solid as a
stock 9.0 install, but with a better XFree86 4.2.1 (some 3d/accel for
nVidia cards with the open source driver) and KDE 3.1rc3 (very nice).
