Not sure you can open the CD while the Mac's powering up. If you can't, you'll have to boot to MacOS first, then install the CD and do a restart. Press the C key as the system's going through its boot-up process. > 2. Is the manner of installing Linux OS on pc is the same in iMac? Maybe, haven't seen a Mandrake PPC install yet. > 3.

I think there might be a version of FIPS for the Mac, so you can carve out a portion for Mandrake and leave the rest to the original MacOS. Mabuhay. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
