See the install.htm file.
IMPORTANT COMPATIBILITY NOTE:
Mandrake is built with CPU speed optimizations for Pentium-class (Pentium(tm) and compatibles, AMD K6, Cyrix M2, PIII...) so it WILL NOT RUN on older i386 and i486 based computers. However, a special version compiled for those CPUs will be available for download from our servers and on cheap CD-Roms.
All the Linux-Mandrake specific packages come with their sources
in the the source-CD (PowerPack Edition).
Please use FTP servers for sources.
