{BBI}Nexus{BBI} Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Greetings members. I have a big ask. Does anyone have Mandrake 9.2 cd's? If so would you be willing to image them and upload to my dropbox? Image them and point me to where I can collect. Or point me to where I can find Mandrake 9.2 available for download. Thanks In Advance.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xboxboy Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Can I be so rude to ask why the old distro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkerr82508 Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Thank you Jim :D You've probably found them already, but the repo's are also available; ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/official/9.2/ and the updates: ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/MandrivaLinux/old/updates/9.2/ A year or two ago, distrib-coffee attempted to ensure that they had every release of Mandrake/Mandriva available, hence: ftp://distrib-coffee.ipsl.jussieu.fr/pub/linux/mandriva-prehistory/ I don't think they've quite got everything, but it's the best place to check, for anyone looking for old Mandrake/Mandriva releases.

jkerr82508 Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Can I be so rude to ask why the old distro? There could be any number of reasons. I still have an old PII, with Mandrake 9.2 installed. I keep it because it was the last release that fully supports a 22 year old parallel port printer that I have as a backup. I haven't had to use it for years, but I do boot up the system from time to time and check that it still works. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{BBI}Nexus{BBI} Posted July 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2011 Can I be so rude to ask why the old distro? Nothing rude about asking :) I'm trying to help a user on another forum get his nvidia card working again on his Mandrake 9.2 install. He needs 9.2 because it supports a particular printer. Just wanted to go through the install and refresh my memory so I can guide him should re-installing be the only option left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
