Here's what I get from what you are telling me. First of all, if linux mounts a drive,
in
this case your cdrom.. then it will not allow you access to the cdrom until it is
unmounted.
Ty making a boot floppy.
Go into the dosutils directory and run the windows version of rawrite. then where it
says image source.. select /mandrake/images/boot.img. When you boot off of the
disk..
Let me know if you get confused.. it's just that it's possible there's a bug in the
cdrom installer.. and the bootdisk one may work.. It's the same graphical install.
