Hi All,
I am looking into getting a new computer and I want to run MD9.2 on it but I have a few questions.
I like to have a good printed manual for reference. Is The Definitive Guide to Using Mandrake Linux going to be updated for 9.2? Is this guide any good?
This is like saying how long is a piece of string.
Personnally I like, Linux in a Nutshell, and Running Linux, published by O'Reilly, though they are becomming a tad out of date perhaps, but get you started in Linux, where it's mainly a matter of making yourself familliar with linux terms and commands.
How about the manuals offered in the boxed sets:
This is purely to help you as a newbie to install mandrake.Nothing more.
Discovering Mandrake Linux guide (is this any good) Starter guide (is this one any good) Reference manual (how about this one)
Is there any way to get the above manuals without getting the boxed sets? (are they on the CD's as html or pdf?)
I don't know.
What does it mean CrossOver Office 2.0 'limited'? Does 'limited' mean an evaluation copy or is it just a fully operational light version? If so, what is missing?
How about VMware workstation? is this a fully operational version of vmware? (Win4Lin too)
No experience
btw what exactly is this LG cdrom problem?
Some cheap LG drives are lacking full IDE functionality, and there is a risk in buying them.
At the end of the day most of us just get started by getting hold of a set of mandrake discs and running them. The installer will not hurt your machine, and it's pretty straight forward. Then just ask here if you have anyquestions.
Thanks Russ
Good luck.
John
