Where are the Linux laptops?
I have installed Mandrake 9.1 on my Dell Inspiron 2500 with no problems. It dual boots with win_xp and win_98. I had to install the win_98 first and as the bootable (FAT32) partition, as LILO would trash the NTFS boot if the xp partition was the boot partition.
Sound, video, ethernet and modem all work out-of-the-box and I'm very impressed with the improvements in the installer on 9.1. I have been a fan of Mandrake since 7.0 and they keep getting better each release.
Linux on laptops is possible with Mandrake 9.1
