  1. Hello! I have two hard drives on my computer. On one, I have Windows XP installed. My curiosity about Linux has caused me to want to put Mandrake on my second drive (it's a 20 GB drive). This machine was custom built for me, and great care was taken to ensure there would be no hardware/driver/OS incompatibilities, and this has been very successful with regards to WinXP. Now I'm wondering...will my basic hardware setup be compatible with a Mandrake installation on the second drive? I don't know if this is all the information you'd need, but for now, I'll provide a list of the hardware I have on here, and hopefully, someone will be able to tell me if they see any potential problems... Motherboard: ASUS P4S533-MX w/Audio/Video/Lan Processor: Intel Celeron 2.4 GHZ Enlight 72500A w/300 Watt ATX Graphics: ASUS GeForce2 MX-400 V7100 Pro 64 (64 MB video RAM) Sound: Creative Soundblaster Live 5.1 Hard Drives: Primary (C:\): Seagate 80 GB/7200 RPM ATA-100 (WinXP installed on this one) Secondary (D:\): Seagate 20 GB/7200 RPM (forgot the rest of this one) CD-ROM: Liteon 52x CD-RW: Liteon 52/32/52 Floppy Drive: Teac 1.44 Floppy RAM: Kingston 512 MB DDR2100 Modems: Linksys external ethernet cable modem (connected via USB port) AOPEN 56k V92 Analog Modem (what I'm using at the moment, because the silly cable is acting up today) Looking at the above, can anyone see potential conflicts if I were to install Mandrake on my secondary hard drive? Thanks!
