Well, i was able to get MDK 10 installing. When it came to installing the bootloader...i get errors! IE: an error occured insmod'ling module loop failed! and/or mkdir: error creating directory /dev/usb: No space lift on device! HELP!!!!!! 10gb total space for MDK and about 500mb for swap. I get the same error everytime. Faulty cd's maybe?? Need help badly!

How is your disk partitioned? Maybe one partition (root probably) really is full, check with 'df'
Is it download version, or did you buy it? SuSe's professional takes around 10 GB if you install everything...

It may be caused by a bad sector on your harddisk. I have never had problems installing Mandrake. I would recommend you maybe run scandisk if you are dual booting. I hope this helps.
