    thx man, but i already got to that page, i just didn't know what file to download.

    i should download version 10? is it for home users?
    and there r 3 files. wich one should i download?
    i have AMD 2500, Nf7,ATI radeon 9200, WD 80GB 7200RPM.


    edite:
    omggg, i just noticed that version 10, 3 files r 3 CDs and not 3 different files.
    i dont want to download that, it will take me 5 hours.
    is there much differnence netween version 10 to version 9.2?
    cuz version 9.2 has only on CD.

    10 is the current one you dl
    the 3 !586 files.
    One note though i used mandrake for like 8 months and loved it. but that annoyed me is that when i comes to updates it's eather pay to use their service or do it one file at a time or wait till the next version comes out for dl. (unless i missed something) thats why i moved on over to Fedora.

    Yeah, 10.0 is 3 discs. Although it depends on which packages you install as to whether you'll need to use all 3 discs. 9.2 is 3 discs too [install, extras and international] so you should only need the first disc [again, depending on the packages you want] The one on LinuxISO is a live disc. 9.2 is available here

    [EDIT] To install without using cds, go for a network install. Have a read through this
