That's one on me!! AFAIK, no Linux distribution starts automagically,
and that too without coaxing..As to Zameer's prob with Mandrake7,
well, probably, his return key had stuck;-)
I'll have to be careful..I gave out the Mandrake CD to greenhorn
friends who want to get started with Linux, coz I thought its
hardware detecton and post install management was easy...We live and
learn...
