134340 2003-04-08 07:46:00 Trying to install mandrake 9.0. The cd boots but the screen goes blank after the welcome screen. i've tried text install instead of graphical but the same lock-up happens. Am I holding by tongue wrong... doesn't matter much, just wanted to have a fiddle because of all the linux rave.
Definitely not as easy as windows XP setup - that seems to install and run out of the box with any modern computer with a hard-drive.

134341 2003-04-08 09:04:00 I am not a expert on Linux, and I told this pressF1 group Linux might be more computer sensitive than microsoft, but someone else said, install the minimum system you can get, then install the options once you have Linux up and running.
e.g. Like I do not have games, but if you wish to have games install that after you have the operating system installed
