To those who were at the InstallFest: I went to the InstallFest to get help on my problem with loading Mandrake 8.2. People helped as much as they could, but I came up with no solutions. I have a ProStar 5190S laptop which PREVIOUSLY had Mandrake 7.2 on it. Now, . . . I have Mandrake 8.2 loaded on it. For those of you who MAY have a problem loading Mandrake 8.2 on your computer/laptop and you come up with a "Kernel Panic" error on install. When it comes to the Pre-Install screen. Go to help and type in linux(expert) and the amount of memory you have. Seemingly, Mandrake 8.2 had an issue with recognizing the amount of RAM I had. I had to specify it. After that, . . . it loaded PERFECTLY. :-). To those that helped me, thanks. -Mario __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
