I downloaded Pinstripe beta one night. It was two disks. The first one was numbered Redhat 6.8 and would not install at all. The second disk was a copy of Mandrake 7.02 ?!?!?!? I don't have a lot of respect for redhat. Abe >= Original Message From "Greg Stewart" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ===

Having used RedHat for a couple of years, and having recently (about half a year ago) switched to Mandrake, I don't think you can expect much problems running RH RPM's on your machine, or finding RH-specific text books invalid in the Mandrake environment. I haven't experienced any problems. The
