[Westwales] Mandrake 10

[Colin Sauze]

I've tried it on one machine, upgrading 3 more this week. Only major 
problem was with a usb wireless lan card, the package needed for it 
wasn't supplied on the download edition CDs and had to be downloaded on 
its own (kind of difficult without a network connection!). Apart from 
that i've not had any major problems. It only has something like kernel 
2.6.3 supplied with it so you might want a newer one if there are any 
hardware issues.
