+ <b>Boot process (stage1)</b>
+
+ Installation begin by booting from CD-ROM or Diskette. From CD-ROM all
+installation method are available (CD, HD, NFS, FTP, HTTP) on options. From
+Diskette according to image selected, only some related method (network or cdrom
+or hd) are available and module managed due to size limitation to 1.44Mb.
+ Options are always available by pressing on F1.
+
+ <b>DrakX process (stage2)</b>
+
+ DrakX installation organized in steps (execution sequence described below).
+Steps listed on left side and help available on bottom right side. most of the
+screen is available for various dialog for interacting with the user. Steps
+execution sequence is automated and described below.
+
+Mouse is probed and if none has been found or if the mouse has not moved, a
+specific mouse configuration is displayed at the begining.
+
+
+Before the graphical steps, there is a detection step. It detects various
+hardware, including modems (from tty0 to tty7), mouse (serial, usb, ps/2) and
+tablets.
+
+ <b>Steps</b>
+
+ <i>Choose Your language</i>: step always displayed. default choice is previous one or
+<font color="#000080"><i>English</i></font>. After choosing a language, a license splash screen translated in the
+chosen language is displayed with <font color="#000080"><i>Accept</i></font> and <font color="#000080"><i>Refuse</i></font> buttons. <font color="#000080"><i>Refuse</i></font> should
+stop installation. <font color="#000080"><i>Accept</i></font> validate language choice which are propagated to all
+DrakX visible widget. Advanced mode allow to select other language available to
+be installed. Advanced mode allow to select language which will be installed on
+system.
+ If step is redone, the license is no more displayed.
+
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Select Install Class</i></font>: step always displayed. default choice is previous one
+or <font color="#000080"><i>Recommended</i></font>. Only one other option available is <font color="#000080"><i>Customized</i></font>. Two buttons
+available are <font color="#000080"><i>Install</i></font> or <font color="#000080"><i>Upgrade</i></font>. Available steps (left side) are changed
+according to installation class selected, where the default is the one of
+<font color="#000080"><i>Recommended</i></font> with <font color="#000080"><i>Install</i></font>.
+
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Hard Drive Detection</i></font>: step always displayed. In recommended mode,
+automatically done. In Customized mode, all modules that manage SCSI/IDE cards
+are loaded automatically and a question asking for other module to load is
+displayed.
+ If clicked later or if to the question to load other module the
+answer is <font color="#000080"><i>Yes</i></font>, a list of module is displayed (or if the question to other
+module to load is. When a module is chosen, two options are available
+<font color="#000080"><i>Autoprobe</i></font> and <font color="#000080"><i>Specify options</i></font>. Autoprobe try to load the module without any
+other user options (default module parameter). Specify options allow user to
+give module parameters individually in a list for all known parameters. At this
+point <font color="#000080"><i>Ok</i></font> or <font color="#000080"><i>Cancel</i></font> are available, Cancel should stop the module installation
+and go to next step. If any error occurs during module installation, a question
+asking to try with other parameter is displayed, the same module is still used.
+
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Setup filesystems</i></font>: step always displayed. display a list of available choice
+accoding to what has been probed. May contains <font color="#000080"><i>Use free space</i></font>, "Use existing
+partition<font color="#000080"><i>, </i></font>Use the window partition for loopback<font color="#000080"><i>, </i></font>Use the free space on the
+Windows partition<font color="#000080"><i>, </i></font>Remove Windows(TM)<font color="#000080"><i>|</i></font>Erase entire disk" (according to disk
+configuration =&gt; only one big fat for the first case only), "Custom disk
+partitioning".
+ If <font color="#000080"><i>Use free space</i></font> mode, auto allocation in available on available disk.
+ If <font color="#000080"><i>Use existing partition</i></font> mode, a list of partition named in Linux
+scheme are displayed with their approximate size in Mb and propose mount point
+to choose in list boxes for each partitions available on hard drive.
+ If <font color="#000080"><i>Use the window partition for loopback</i></font> mode, DrakX use available size
+on the windows partition to create a root file and a swap file which will be
+used in loopback, this means this is a lnx4win installation.
+ If <font color="#000080"><i>Use the free space on the Windows partition</i></font> mode, DrakX will resize
+the windows partition and allocate true linux filesystem (at least / and swap).
+ If <font color="#000080"><i>Remove Windows(TM)</i></font>|<font color="#000080"><i>Erase entire disk</i></font> mode, DrakX clean the
+partition table before auto allocating partition.
+ If <font color="#000080"><i>Custom disk partitioning</i></font> mode, diskdrake is launch. TO BE DEFINED to
+change make diskdrake use only advanced mode.
+Diskdrake show all partition of all non-removable disk graphically. All special
+partition are hidden, only user accessible partition are visible: this remove
+extended partition, whole disk partition on sparc platform. Clicking on a disk
+notebook tab show all his partitions. Clicking on a partition show all actions
+available for this partition (depend if customized or advanced mode) as well as
+information on this partition (depend if customized or advanced mode). Most
+diskdrake operation are done without writing on disk (exception are Resizing
+partitions) and everything is written once on the disk when exiting diskdrake,
+at any time if writing partition table is necessary, there are always a dialog
+box asking the user to confirm the write. If no operation are modifying
+partition table, no dialog is displayed on exit (for example if giving mount
+point to partition). General action are available too:
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Clear All</i></font>: clear all partition of the given disk.
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Auto allocate</i></font>: try to allocate partition in available disk (not the
+seen disk).
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Undo</i></font>: undo last operation.
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Done</i></font>: quit and save changes.
+Other operations are available in advanced mode:
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Rescue partition table</i></font>: try to rescue a lost partition table,
+absolutely no garantee to succeed and may destroy what could be saveable by
+another tools.
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Reload</i></font>: reload partition table from disk, erasing all changes in
+memory done by the user.

+partition table from diskdrake.
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Save to floppy</i></font>: save partition table to floppy.
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Options</i></font>: global options available for filesystem configuration. This
+include <font color="#000080"><i>Removable media automouting supermount</i></font> check box disabled by default.
+ Operation available on partition are:
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Mount point</i></font>: change or define mount point for partition, only
+available for true filesystem partition.
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Resize</i></font>: resize partition, if a specific algorithm to keep data is
+used no data may be lost, else all data are lost but nothing is written by
+diskdrake on the partition data in this last case (this means data can be
+restored by restoring original size and location).
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Delete</i></font>: delete partition, if the same partition is created (same type,
+location, size) all data can be restored as diskdrake doesn't write on partition
+data.
+ Operation available on partition table but in advanced mode are:
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Type</i></font>: change type of partition, all data will be lost but diskdrake as
+above does not destroy them, and everyting can be restored.
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Format</i></font>: format partition, at this point, all data ARE LOST.

+filesystem step correctly (problably if a resize partition is used on FAT fs).
+allow Mounting swap on customized mode too.
+ A legend for partition type colors is available
+(Ext2,ReiserFS,Swap,FAT,Other,Empty). It has additionnal features to create a
+partition or change its type (only available in advanced mode).
+
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Format partitions</i></font>: step always displayed. display list of partition to
+format with click boxes. Some are defined according to type of partitions and if
+the partition has been created or taken back.
+If a partition has already been formated, it is not proposed, or if it should
+not be proposed (alrady existing partition like /mnt/windows).
+On Advanced tag, an additional dialog is displayed to select partition to format
+(all available partition listed) and to format them with bad block checking.
+
+ <font color="#000080"><i>Choose packages</i></font>: step always displayed. default selection done to be
+<font color="#000080"><i>correct</i></font> according to size available, Install or Upgrade, Hardware available.
+This selection is done according to <font color="#000080"><i>Mandrake first choice</i></font> of packages.
+On all mode, display groups and main desktop used (KDE or Gnome), an
+individual package selection check box is available to allow selecting package
+individually. In this case, a dialog displaying a tree with groups, (Mandrake
+first choice/alternatives) and packages is shown on the left part, a description

+At each values chosen (list boxes displayed a
+synthesis description) the current dialog is removed from screen and specific
+configuration panels are displayed (like currently for mouse, keyboard ...).
+And end of these specific configuration panels, this one is remapped on screen
+to be accepted in general.
