This means you have to upgrade to a version of rpm that is greater or equals
to rpm 3.0.3-1. So upgade to rpm 3.0.5 for example. I upgraded from a
initscript-4.9x to a 5.2x release without any problems on a Redhat system
but did not try this on mandrake yet. I think Mandrake is just redhat
It should be 'append="hdd=ide-scsi"' where hdd is your cd-writer. See

If you got a static IP (I did. Woo) then just set up the ethernet as with

I installed 7.2b3 a few days ago. I tried to compile a simple
KDE app (kdirstat), but get the error 'can't compile a KDE app...
KDE headers missing'. I used the 'devel' option during install, I've
checked MUO's list of (devel) rpm's needed to compile. They're all
installed and then some.
Try "xinit" from the CLI (command-line Interface). This should bring up,
simply, X and an XTerm.
Type "gnome-session" into the XTerm, and watch GNOME load.
Hope this helps.
