Well, honestly, what happened the first few times was i was just
burning everything as a straight data Cd like i would for a windows
program. that caused me 2 days of problems. to go along with that,
i did move the iso images around on my hard drive and i'm sure that
didn't help matters, winblows probably re-arranged some things on
it's own for me. thanks mr gates.

how many hours have i spent with what? trying to get the Cds
working right and a good install or how many hours have i spent
playing around with mandrake? the install....i won't even attempt to
count. there were problems. as far as playing with mandrake
itself...i've been splitting my time between windows and mandrake.
it's a slow transition for me, and i still have no clue how to set up the
mail stuff (see another e-mail i sent out for details).

i'd almost be willing to put money on the problem being the way i
was burning the CDs. hands down. although next time i will do the
checksum program and make sure everything is good before i go
through hell again.
