DOlson Posted September 24, 2002 Report Share Posted September 24, 2002 You probably won't need CD3. It's all internationalization stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cyclops Posted September 24, 2002 Report Share Posted September 24, 2002 Thanks for the tip, D - I might get to play tonight then, because I plan to install it on a different computer from the one that's downloading, and I have cd1 and cd2 already. We'll see how the evening goes. Hey, I just noticed on DistroWatch that Mandrake 9.0 is listed as official starting today. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 You will need CD3 for development programs. I posted a link to the contents in a previous message. Don't ask which one. Bluebeard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannonfodder Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 Got all 3, they are: MandrakeLinux-9.0rc3-i18n.i586.iso* MandrakeLinux-9.0rc3-inst-1.i586.iso* MandrakeLinux-9.0rc3-inst-2.i586.iso* and the md5sum checksums check out too!

Bluebeard. That sucks severely... I installed RC3 and was able to compile things just fine with that, and I didn't use CD3. Oh well, if I need it, I'll get it later.

mystified Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 I'm downloading now! Unfortunately at only 80 KB/s but that's okay. I'll just let it go overnight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cyclops Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 Got all three CDs and went ahead with installation. No problems whatsoever, and it looks great! I didn't think I'd like the new icons at first, but they are really pretty cool. It only took 18 minutes to install from "insert disk 1" to the time I started typing this, so that's not bad. Gotta do some tweaking now, but things are looking really good so far. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOlson Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 Okay...... You NEED CD3 if you want the kernel source. I don't know why they changed that... But oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannonfodder Posted September 25, 2002 Report Share Posted September 25, 2002 Same here and its working nice. A surprise was Opera. I downloaded and installed it and it worked like a charm. No library problems. Gnome is nice. Opened a terminal and it was setup and ready to go in my fav config. Loads very fast too. KDE I haven't checked much. Opened a terminal and tried to set the background to a new color but it wouldn't switch. Took easily twice as long to start too. But I'll play with it more.
