Just a quick note.
I have just been trying out Mdk 10 Official on 'Leon', my spare mainly winxp computer and while it is slick, quick and pretty professional when up and going several things went bad along the way.
The install hung for a considerable period but when by chance I came back to it later after leaving it going I found it did actually get itself moving. The rest of the install went smoothly.
In booting Mdk 10.0 pauses for some time on 'Mount local file systems' but does get up after a while. Don't know why. Don't really care either.
Luckily I have 'Linikis', a simpler spec machine ready to try.
The machine Mdk 10.0 doesn't like has:-
Athlon 2800, Gigabyte KT600 Motherboard, ATA 133 HDD, SATA HDD on controller card, 1024Mb DDR, Nividea etc.
I can only think that Mdk 10.0 doesn't agree with my SATA controller card. Mdk 9.2 installed cleanly, booted easily and ran smoothly on the same machine, but it's predecessor Mdk 9.1 took a hell of a fight to get it up at all.
It seems that Mdk 10.0 has gone backwards a bit in installing and booting on some of the more higher spec machines.
I'll post again if there are any problems after I've let the monster loose on 'Linikis', my mainly linux box but I don't anticpate any.
Cheers.
