what is the difference?


I have seen the .ISO files for Mandrake 10.1 Official, Mandrake 10.1 Community, and Mandriva 10.2 SE.

What is the difference between each of the installs. I can understand that 10.2 has newer versions of the kernal and KDE, but what about between Official and Community?

If I am going to install one of them, what should I install?

I am looking to setup a base OS to run VM-Ware Workstation 5 on. I will probably run my regular sessions from a vm machine. Any advice would be appreciated.

Community is like a final Beta, or Release Candidate. As soon as Official is released, Community is no longer directly supported.

I would install Mandriva Limited Edition 2005, the "Official" version of 10.2.
