description: 
Clean install of MAndrake 10.0 community from CDROM. 
 
I Chose bootloader = lilo graphical on /dev/fd0 
 
-> I had not been prompted to insert a floppy disk 
-> the floppy drive light came on; no disk was present, a few 
   seconds later the light went off and the installer GUI 'hung' - 
   the blue left-hand margin still had the list of operations but 
   the main grey window was plain grey (no text) and nothing I 
   tried on the keyboard would take me back. 
ALT-F1 showed the console, the last message was: 
*** unhandled exception in callback 
*** lilo failed: Fatal: open /dev/fd0 no such device or address 
*** ignoring at /usr/bin/perl-install/ugtk2.pm line 957 
 
the installer *Should* have prompted for a floppy and retried or 
failed gracefully if none was present. 
 
work around: reboot, restart install, insert floppy. System works out 
that all packages are installed and goes straight to the bootloader section 
and writes the floppy (neat).  
 
(other than that, a very clean install)
