Okay, i made a folder in Windows named "Mandrake" then i copied all the folders (base, mdkinst, RPMS) in this folder.
Now when i boot up with the floppy containing the hd.img file it ask for the partition where the Linux-Mandrake directory is and i choose hda1 (my C drive) then it asks for the directory but what do i type here ?
C: ? Mandrake ?
help please...

Well this is what I did, I made a folder C:\linux and put the mandrake folder in there. then when it asks what folder in the setup I just put "linux" thats it if you have the mandrake folder in C:\Mandrake then you could just hit enter and if that doesn't work try what I did. Hope this helps
