Lando Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Mandriva-Linux-free-2006 installation procedure starts asking to choose between (1) Upgrade MDK Linux release 10.0 (official) and (2) Install . What does this mean ? that this distro is a MDK 10.0 ? I 've installed this release an year and half ago ! Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arctic Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Go for (2) install as starting from scratch is faster and easier. Mandriva will always auto-detect existing systems and ask you if you want to update them (in your case 10.0) but a clean install is always recommended.

jboy Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 I second arctic's good advice about going for the install rather than an upgrade of something that is now several versions old. There are several posts here about the serious problems people have had trying to upgrade 10.0 or 10.1 to the new 2006 version. For a new install, you might find the following links useful: aRTee's 2006 install: http://www.mandrake.tips.4.free.fr/installmdv2006.html Install slideshow: http://www.tuxpedia.com/chap2.html Howto setup Mandriva 2006 as a server: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_mandriva_2006 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
