Also try unplugging extra stuff like usb scanners, modems, and printers...they can be configured later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SpaceCadet Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 OK got mandrake 9.1 installed onto another machine. I haven't really tested it out yet, but it looks like it's running beautifully. I'm so excited! Now I just need to figure out how to set up an ftp server on this thing. I installed mandrake with Higher security levels and I installed "web/ftp server" during set up. I am also running KDE 3.1. I like what you have done with the new KDE desktop. It looks much cleaner than the 8.0 version and that colour of blue is my fave! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest anon Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 I like what you have done with the new KDE desktop! We have not done anything :) This is an independent board, and is not connected with Mandrake in anyway. We here just to help fellow users of Mandrake and other Linux Operating systems.

ezroller Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 to set up the server, there is a wizard you can use if you run the program "mcc" in a terminal as root. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ixthusdan Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 Actually, ms writes their stuff so that you have to have their programs, so it's the other way around. Linux works with anything that wants to work! :wink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
