| 252314 | 2004-07-14 10:54:00 | Am hoping to install Linux Mandrake 10 in parallel to a Windows98 OS. Have got a 3 * CD set. Put in the first CD, which indicates that machine will be rebooted. Click 'OK' .... but nothing happens. What's going wrong - how can I get past this first hurdle (am totally new to Linux, but keen to leave MS!)? Thanks |
