i started the download for the mandrake dvd iso lastnight when i got back from the trucks and let it go all night, when i woke up this afternoon it was done. so i burned the iso and then had to fight with this POS Abit IS7 mobo (which i thought was decent, definately switching back to my Asus board once i get the bios reflashed) to get it to boot the dvd. i had to disable the boot of the HDD then put it in the master cd/dvd burner and then it proceeded and then gave me an error that it couldnt uncompress the 2nd stage ramdrive and told me that it wa most likely a hardware error. i gave up and i figure ill try it when i swap mobos
