Hi, I'm Newbie. I would like to install mandrake 9.1 on my system. I've got 2 hd.
I would like to use one for WIN2KPRO and the other for MANDRAKE9.1.
I've already have WIN2K on my first hd while the second is new.
How can i install MANDRAKE and don't get the problem of start? I mean, how should I configure the startup manager?When should I configure it? Thanks for your help!!!

use lilo, it'll be configured at the end of the installation. pretty simple to set up actually.

dont forget to make a floppy to boot your install (in case...)

Make sure your hard-drive is partioned, so you can actually see it with Mandrake particianing, delete the partician and then hit auto-allocate, hit ok and install it.

It's pretty simple.

I've installed it 4 different times.

If you get stuck, I'd be willing to make a call and help you.
