Mandrake 10.1 ISO Question

Phase2 · 05-08-2005, 09:26 PM

I notice the various Mandrake 10.1 downloads. However, I wanted to know the difference, if any, from the following: The site lists x86-64 as 3-CD downloads, but unfortunately no single DVD option. There seems to be the DVD option for the i586 downloads, however. Although I do see a DVD option for "10.1 official," there's no specification of i586 or x86-64. Can someone with much more knowledge regarding this issue please help me out. I would appreciate it.

Well, x86-64 would be for 64 bit processors and support.
Any of the others that are i586 or i686 are going to support most regular 32bit intel or amd processors..

Right--I'm asking because I have a 64 bit AMD processor. I assumed I could find the Mandrake 10.1 official download in a DVD option.

I moved this thread to a more appropriate area--the Mandriva section of Distrobutions. If you can respond over there, I would appreciate it.

To any mods: Please feel free to remove this thread, as the new one is in the correct section.
