Subject: [newbie] Installing Linux-Mandrake 7.1 on Windows Me
Is there a way around the idiotic no MS-DOS program installed to demoralize
users on Windows Me, aside from uninstalling? I just bought this thing,
mainly because I wasn't that impressed with Red Hat. However, I can not
install due to Window's Me. I'm thinking I could just boot from CD and
install that way, like I did with Red Hat, but not totally sure, as there is
two CD's and don't want to mess anything up.. Oh, for clarification's sake,
here's my specs
Im running Windows ME also and just successfully installed LM 7.1 from the
bootable CD. Grub works like a charm for dual booting. I have had problems
with my soundcard config though. didnt work at all at first but after
running sndconfig it kinda works.. it at least plays the test sounds and
will play music cds . I just cant get the system sounds working in KDE or
Gnome.
