Regarding : The Perfect Desktop
http://www.howtoforge.com/the_perfect_desktop_mandriva_2008.0

I download the link from mandriva.. and begin to the install... on the first screen the tutorial shows a screen that I don't get.

I get a different, but very similar screen without those options. All it will do is boot from the CD.

Any Ideas :confused:

Thanks

What options do you get?
Are you sure you downloaded the Mandriva 2008.0 DVD?

Thanks for the reply.

I don't get any options. If I press F3 I can make a couple of changes about how it boots, but that's it.

No it's not the DVD. I use the link given in the tutorial. I noticed he called it DVD in the tutorial. It doesn't appear that there is a DVD available for download on the Mandriva site.

There's a direct link to a DVD image in the tutorial: http://fr2.rpmfind.net/linux/Mandrakelinux/official/iso/2008.0/mandriva-linux-2008.0-free-dvd-i586.iso
Please try that one.
