I am new to mandrake and on the advice of a linux user i went to cooker for ease of using my graphics drivers. It didnt go well and subsequently he told me to use my cd1 and restore to 10.1 official. I started this and after about 5 hours of looking for packages it stopped and said that partition table too corruptted. So i said okay to remove all partitions and start for scratch.
I tried to do this several times and kept getting
An error occurred
mounting partition /dev/hda1 in directory /
mnt failed (no such file or directory)
My question is this, how do i wipe the drive completely clean so i can install 10.1 from the beginning?
I dont seem to be able to use the install/ restore command from my cd
Please help me!!!
