I Cc you because my answer is so late :( On the first Mandrake CD there is a
D:\INSTALL.txt file (in Windows, if the CDROM is the D drive) :
............
2. Installing onto Windows 95/98/ME
To install MandrakeLinux within a Windows folder, avoiding any disk
partitioning, you should:
1. Insert the first CD,
2. Reboot the system,
3. Press [F1] when the MandrakeLinux screen comes up,
4. Type lnx4win at the prompt, then press [Enter]
Follow the instructions shown on screen.
Additional details on lnx4win can be found in the appropriate
readme file.
..........
Let us know if this fails!
