Yes (Mandrake), and I think so (Solaris).

For Mandrake, you probably need to do an 'expert' install
(instead of recommended). At least, that's what I remember doing
in the case where I did not want Mandrake to use all the wrong
partition ;-) (IN older versions I think you could get
the disk partitioning software to let you choose the
partitions you want to use, and where to mount them -
isn't that still possible? I'm going to be installing
8.1 on my laptop here reall soon now, I'll try to pay
more attention...)

> Thanks for any help,



I really find the mandrake expert mailing list to be
extremely helpful you might try joining one of their
listss (expert or non-expert (forget the name)).

Also, I'd be happy to try to help more if you need it...
