Thank you John- when I do the command I get no package available. It may
be because I am not yet a member of the Mandriva club and I see it is
only available to members and I have been conserving money so have not
joined. I will explore it more but thanks for the effort. I assume no
one has put the manual on their website? It feels a little strange that
they would allow one to download the ISO but not supply a users manual.

Hello - I looked in usr/local/share/man for document on using Mandriva
One 2007 the folders are there but they are empty. Are they located in
a different folder and I just did not see them? or is there a URL I
can find the user manual specific to 2007. I have a lot of reading to
do but have to find the docs first! Thanks Johnny

But your cd in the drive and look to see if either of them are there -
(they should be in the media subdirs ...).
Open MCC -> Software Manager and use the search function to see what
"doc" rpms are there - a list of about 30 rpms should be displayed.
Check to see if the Mandriva doc files are showing check marks if not
select them by checking the small open box alongside the filenames for
your language and install them.
The menu reference should be: Start -> More Applications ->
Documentation.
OK?
(Just for your info, the convention on this list is to place your
input after the part of the email you are replying to)

Okay Thanks John will give it a try - Johnny
If you have your urpmi sources set up you should be able to get almost
anything
http://easyurpmi.zarb.org/
will make it easy
Someone should note, you need to be root to install via urpmi....
make sure you also setup plf (both 'free' and 'non-free' that is free as
in liberty, it's all free as in beer), contrib-updates, contrib
backports, main updates and main backports too,
