kongit Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 I don't think you even need cd 2. But they have packages on them that you might like, but you can install it with only cd 1 and download the stuff off the internet. So to answer you, you don't need cd 3.

Shad0wcat Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 As far as I know cd's 2 and 3 are full of sysadmin stuff and documentation.. you don't need them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PseudoRandomDragon Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 I recommend downloading CD3, you might wake up one day with the ability to speak spanish. If you want to know how to install it without burning a CD, private message me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Posted March 9, 2004 Author Share Posted March 9, 2004 could i install with just 1+2 and do cd3 later on? thanks welshkid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shad0wcat Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 I should think so, but knowing linux you will probably have to read through 30,000 pages of crap and then recompile your life before it will allow you to even think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WildFire Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 heh, yes, you can add stuff from CD3 if ever you decide to download it using the Mandrake package installer. If you dont have CD3, or CD2 for that matter, when installing, its no problem whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhaygood86 Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 I just use CD 1 and 2. Everything on there (except for mysql-bench as far as I know) is on the first two CDs, and the third CD is for alternative languages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
