LittleJohn Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 (edited) I realize this may be a horrible question. But here goes. I currently have deleted Mandrake from my computer (not forever). But anyway I did this because it was not installed really correctly the first time (through no fault of the wonderful person who did it for me). But I am wanting to install it again. I have the cds that were first used for the first try at it (well not really I left them at my mom's for now). I just wanted to know where is (if any) there an easy site to download the latest version of Mandrake Linux. Sorry if this is a stupid question. mod Note:Moved from Software by Phunni Edited May 18, 2004 by phunni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidzoo Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Right now, you can get the community edition of Mandrake 10 from any of the download mirrors here: http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/ftp.php3 Just click the button that says "I'm already a member of the Club or plan on registering soon, please send me to the download page" 10.0OE will come out on the ftp mirrors for non-club members sometime this month. As a note: There are 3 cd's for the Download edition. If you have Windows on this computer as well (XP is the only version affected, I think) you must get cd's 1 and 2 (you have to boot to cd 2, then insert cd 1 when prompted). If you have the bandwidth and the time, you can always get all 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleJohn Posted May 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Uh thanks. Matter of fact just talked to Steve. He already has it downloaded and is willing to burn it for me. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linux_learner Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 LiquidZoo there are no 10.0 OE iso's on any mirror at this time. maybe if your a club member things might be different. that i dunno. http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/ftp.php3 Mandrakelinux 10.0 Official for i586 and higher United States # ftp://carroll.cac.psu.edu/pub/linux/distr...icial/10.0/i586 (Pennsylvania) # ftp://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distri...icial/10.0/i586 (North Carolina) notice there is no iso in this. the mandrake site only has the rpm's. you'd have to download the rpm's and make your own iso.

liquidzoo Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 linux_learner: I know. That's why I said in the middle of that post 10.0OE will come out on the ftp mirrors for non-club members sometime this month. I've heard it will be the 27th, but I'm not sure.

polemicz Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 You could install the CE from the download and then change your sources to the offical sites and urpmi urpmi then urpmi --auto-select and then the urpmi kernel (forget the number now) and you are using Official. That is what I did and it works like a charm. Back in April bvc, I believe, posted a list of this with the keys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
