rdbrooks Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 When I first started using mandrake 10, certain packages I selected asked for cd 4 to install them. Of course, the official download is only 3 isos. I thought this was a glitch at first, until I found that the individual programs are available on mandrake's official sites and mirrors. I copied the file name of iso 3 and changed the 3 to a 4, to do a search online for the 4th iso image. I found it on numerous mirrors, usually linked to from gaming sites. I guess this is because the nvidia and ati drivers not included in the official download are on this cd. My question : Why is this iso available for download, but not included on the official download servers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spinynorman Posted September 19, 2004 Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 Mandrake have decided that the 4th CD is only made available to Mandrake Club members. This board has decided to support the policy, which is why you won't find any links to unofficial copies here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdbrooks Posted September 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2004 That's kind of what I figured, and I agree. I'm usually pretty resourceful when it comes to finding files, drivers, etc, so I didn't know what I had until after I had it. Thanks.
