I have the deluxe Mandrake OS of Linux installed this week on my computer. But, none of the command references from the readme files work in the root or user modes. I can type in all the commands I want, but I keep getting no access to such files. For instance, I would lie to install the Star Office from the CD-ROM. I follow the instructions given in the manual, but the Mandrake edition will not recognize the instructrions. What is going on. How can I get these applications into the system? Is there something wrong with the space I have still left (about 550MB). I am missing something for sure. I did note that I could not get into some files because the answer given was that I need 5M for the temporary files. What does that mean? Your help would be appreciated.
