Ok, did you set up a parition via windows? are you installing mandrake to the paritioned section? Is the paritioned section reformated? If you answer yes to all these questions, then it is ok to reboot ;)
partitioned a while back, dont know how to install it to a partition (maybe that is after i restart it) and i am going to partition it now :rolleyes:Quote:

I never seen a Mandrake install look like that. Must be that crappy Community 10 beta.
