Hi there,
Earlier on today I was cycling through some desktop themes when
Mandrake had a Win98 style crash.  The whole system locked up so I
had to press the reset button.  When Linux tried to reboot, I got the
usual 'drive wasn't cleanly unmounted' or something.  Then after that,
about 70% of the boot operations failed.  I tried to reboot again and
again, and even tried using the recovery disk, but nothing worked.
I've re-installed now, but can anyone tell me why such a thing
happened and how to avoid it in future?
Very rare for Linux to do this :-/

Best regards,
 Paul                          mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
