Dumb Question

What's the difference between the 3 cd ISO's and the single DVD ISO in mandrake 10.1?

I mean are the packages significantly different or no difference at all?

Thanks

Should be no different except the packaging. One on several CDs whereas the other in a single DVD.

Also as the DVD has more space, they may have added extra uitilities tools etc that you may find useful but are not part of the base MDK pack.

Having said that most ftp sites are only making CD1-3 available. I don't know why CD4 is not being made available.

I gather you need CD4 for KDE 3.3.1 which is not installed by default. Anyone have any more information on this?

The Mandrake Power Pack as sold by Mandrake contains 6 CDs This maybe also what is on the DVD though I have not found any info to confirm this.
