  1. I'm having singular lack of success with Linux, tried Mandrake 9 and quite liked it apart from a couple of bugs [could have been mine] since them looked at Ubuntu and Knoppix and although quite nice didn't like them enoughand thought I'd have a look at Mandriva, could produce a bootable version from the iso's I downloaded and picked up a version from Linux User& issue 59 of Mandriva 2006, however it stopps on boot with an error message: ---------- Unable to mount loopfilesytem > Dropping to limited shell > > losetup /dev/loop/0 initrd/cdrom/livecd.sqfs > mount -r -t squash fs /dev/loop/0 > initrd/loopfs > loading /initrd/bin/ash --------- this is on an 1.8G PIV 256RAM. Is this likely to be hopeless and should I plug on looking looking for another disk? Also thinking about MEPIS and KANOTIX.
