Mandrake 9.2 ISOs Available

Posted by jamie on from the firmware dept.

joestar writes "Since LG has released updated firmwares and a recovery procedure for all so-called ATAPI LG cd-rom drives that were "destroyed" by a feature of Mandrake 9.2, MandrakeSoft has publicly released the set of Mandrake 9.2 ISO images which are now available on a number of FTP mirrors. Mandrake 9.2 is one of the few remaining 100%-OSS major Linux distributions, so considering a MandrakeClub membership or joining Cooker - Mandrake's open development version - is certainly an excellent idea." Here's the feature list.

    Yeah, there seems to be a huge group of people out there who think slackware is dying, who laugh at people who like fvwm over metacity.

    I don't have a point... those people suck..

    regarding kernel 2.6. Does 2.6 include the multi-threaded booting? Allowing it do boot up much faster by not serializing the processes? It's rare that I reboot my desktop, but the laptop takes a fair amount of time to start up when I'm running linux on it.
    Thx in advance.

    Well. I started with Slack and FVWM so nothing against that. I wouldn't use them anymore though (and TWM is enough for a 100MB install of Mandrake).
