Does 8.1 install with DevFs?  If so, could this be the problem I am having 
with trying to install Mandrake, and telling it to use disks 2 and 3, but 
when it tries to eject the CD, it just locks? (I never had this problem with 
8.0)

And if so, is there a way to turn of the devfs when installing Mandrake 8.1, 
or do I have to (what I did to get 8.1) install just the install CD, then 
install any other packages with Software Manager (or RPM in the console)
