Why do you think software is tested before it is released for sale?
Don't complain if you don't know the difference between a stable version

More information on this error.
I installed 7.0 and try to upgrade with 7.1 and I still get the error. Why
would they be setting up filesystems in an upgrade in any case?
The ACTUAL ERROR shown when I exit install is as follows:

PjWhy do you think that Linux Mandrake 7.1 is a

What install class under 7.0?
what do you mean?
I have 7.1's showing Mime Type, Application, and URL, etc under New and I want
to figure out what the difference is.
Mine dosn't show this.. may be this is coz my upgrade path was 7.0 - 7.1b1
- 7.1b3 - 7.1!
