Thanks for that Ian....

But I don't have a DVD burner :-)

Anyway, I am trying to do a network install of 2007 Community. I have 
downloaded the boot.iso from ftp.proxad.net, burned it to CD, booted up, 
configured my network card & IP settings (D-Link 530), but the ftp URL's that 
are preloaded appear to be no good.... I just get a "file not found". Looking 
at the URL on my other PC, it appears to be totally different, with 
the /Mandrakelinux appearing now on ftp.proxad.net as a shortcut.... click 
it, and you get a totally different URL appear in the browser address bar.... 
and I still get the file not found error too.....

Can anyone give me a URL that I can do a ftp network install from, that will 
actually *WORK*?

I'd like to get up and running on 2007 Community, but a: cant really afford 
the bandwidth to download the whole DVD .iso, and b: I havent a DVD 
burner..... I'd just rather just pull down the files I actually *WANT* to 
install....

The last network install I did, was 2005LE, and that went without a hitch.... 
I tried the same method with 2006, and had no success.... in the end having 
to download the 3 CD .iso's, and getting moaned at by my ISP for bandwidth 
usage in the process! :-)

Can somebody help please?

Many thanks,

James

PS, had this problem a few weeks back when messing with Fedora 5... so I gave 
up!
