    Of this Madnriva sub-distribution you've mentioned to use otherwise. I've got another problem. I've moved some files (.tar.bz2) to a directory. I've extracted one, ok. I'm extracting secon, but it tells me that I don't have the permission to write it. But previous file I've unpacked with no problem! These two files have the same permissions. Regards

    I didn't say to use mandriva. Mandriva doesn't have a live-cd dedicated for development. Either install mandriva on a hard disk as a regular system or find a different live-cd, best if it was based on Debian.

    So you suggest not to use mandriva to develop programs? I tried Kubuntu, but I had network problems. My network card was well recognised, but when I tried to connect to it, computer has been crashing every time...

    No I suggest not to use mandriva live-cd to develop programs. I use Mandriva myself and it works just fine. But I run it from my hard disk and not from a live cd.

    Mandriva One is the live cd. I'm talking about Mandriva 2008.0 that comes on a DVD.

    I'm running Debian and Kubuntu and I never downloaded the full dvd/cd-set.
    Debian knows a netinstall cd with ~180 MB with the base system and the installer.
    All packages are downloaded via http/ftp.

    This must be possible with Mandriva as well.

    Just my two cents

    Yes, it is. But we're having a Linux newbie here. I wouldn't recommend a network install.

    Yes, this is fine. This will probably be faster, though: ftp://ftp.tuniv.szczecin.pl/pub/linu...e-dvd-i586.iso
    And md5sum for it: ftp://ftp.tuniv.szczecin.pl/pub/linu...d-i586.iso.md5

    Depends what you choose during installation.

    Oh, and one more question, what's md5sum for?
    For checking if you downloaded the dvd correctly before burning it to the disc. Ask google for md5sum to learn more.

    2 years ago I was a Linux newbie as well. I always did network installs. Never had any problems.
    But if the dvd helps to get another Linux user - I have NO problem with that solution!

    Maybe I'll help to recommend a good Linux book for beginners.
    Actually I know only one (it's german): http://www.amazon.de/Linux-Fedora-Ub...5720555&sr=8-1

    Have a nice day ....

    Hi. I've installed Mandriva 2008 from DVD instead of live cd. After installation, I went to Install software and installed all gcc stuff (22 packages like binutils, libs etc). And when I type 'make' in console, I reach that there's no such command. What else do I need to do to make gcc work?
