Ok here are the results. This is a less that scientific study of course.
Processor AMD XP 3000 (32 bit)
RAM 1.5
HDD 40 gig (slave) partitiond to 10 gig / and 30 gig /home. Formatted
both partitions at install.
Mandriva One from Linux Format DVD 13 minutes (Live Install)
Mandriva One from Live CD 15 minutes
Ubuntu 8.04 from Linux Format DVD 18 minutes
The times are from clicking the Install Icon on the desktop to logging
onto a user GUI.
I believe Roy, you have 64 bit processor? Maybe that makes a difference?
This may explain why I've stuck with Mandriva.. it just plays nice
with my hardware.

Steve
