Although it is very practical to log in as \"root\" everyday, it may also be very dangerous! The slightest mistake could mean that your system would not work any more. If you make a serious mistake as a regular user, you may only lose some information, but not the entire system. First, you have to enter your real name. This is not mandatory, of course - as you can actually enter whatever you want. DrakX will then take the first word you have entered in the box and will bring it over to the \"User name\". This is the name this particular user will use to log into the system. You can change it. You then have to enter a password here. A non-privileged (regular) user's password is not as crucial as that of \"root\" from a security point of view, but that is no reason to neglect it - after all, your files are at risk.

If you need to reinstall Windows, the Microsoft install process will rewrite the boot sector, and then you will not be able to start GNU/Linux! * if a problem arises and you cannot start up GNU/Linux from the hard disk, this floppy disk will be the only means of starting up GNU/Linux. It contains a fair number of system tools for restoring a system, which has crashed due to a power failure, an unfortunate typing error, a typo in a password, or any other reason.

If your hard drive is empty or if an existing operating system is using all the space available, you will need to partition it. Basically, partitioning a hard drive consists of logically dividing it to create space to install your new Mandrake Linux system. Because the effects of the partitioning process are usually irreversible, partitioning can be intimidating and stressful if you are an inexperienced user. Fortunately, there is a wizard which simplifies this process. Before beginning, please consult the manual and take your time. If you are running the install in Expert mode, you will enter DiskDrake, the Mandrake Linux partitioning tool, which allows you to fine-tune your partitions. See the DiskDrake chapter of the manual. From the installation interface, you can use the wizards as described here by clicking the \"Wizard\" button of the dialog. If partitions have already been defined, either from a previous installation or from another partitioning tool, simply select those to install your Linux system. If partitions are not defined, you will need to create them using the wizard. Depending on your hard drive configuration, several options are available: * \"Use free space\": this option will simply lead to an automatic partitioning of your blank drive(s). You will not be prompted further. * \"Use existing partition\": the wizard has detected one or more existing Linux partitions on your hard drive. If you want to use them, choose this option. * \"Use the free space on the Windows partition\": if Microsoft Windows is installed on your hard drive and takes all the space available on it, you have to create free space for Linux data. To do that, you can delete your Microsoft Windows partition and data (see \"Erase entire disk\" or \"Expert mode\" solutions) or resize your Microsoft Windows partition. Resizing can be performed without the loss of any data. This solution is recommended if you want to use both Mandrake Linux and Microsoft Windows on same computer. Before choosing this option, please understand that after this procedure, the size of your Microsoft Windows partition will be smaller than at the present time. You will have less free space under Microsoft Windows to store your data or to install new software. * \"Erase entire disk\": if you want to delete all data and all partitions present on your hard drive and replace them with your new Mandrake Linux system, choose this option. Be careful with this solution because you will not be able to revert your choice after confirmation. !! If you choose this option, all data on your disk will be lost. !! * \"Remove Windows\": this will simply erase everything on the drive and begin fresh, partitioning everything from scratch. All data on your disk will be lost. !! If you choose this option, all data on your disk will be lost. !! * \"Expert mode\": choose this option if you want to manually partition your hard drive.

Because hardware detection will sometimes not detect a piece of hardware, DrakX will ask you to confirm if a PCI SCSI card is present. Click \"Yes\" if you know that there is a SCSI card installed in your machine. You will be presented a list of SCSI cards to choose from. Click \"No\" if you have no SCSI hardware. If you are unsure you can check the list of hardware detected in your machine by selecting \"See hardware info\" and clicking \"OK\". Examine the list of hardware and then click on the \"OK\" button to return to the SCSI interface question. If you have to manually specify your adapter, DrakX will ask if you want to specify options for it. You should allow DrakX to probe the hardware for the card-specific options that the hardware needs to initialize. This usually works well. If DrakX is not able to probe for the options that need to be passed, you will need to manually provide options to the driver. Please review the ``User Guide'' (chapter 3, section \"Collecting Information on Your Hardware\") for hints on retrieving the parameters required from hardware documentation, from the manufacturer's web site (if you have Internet access) or from Microsoft Windows (if you used this hardware with Windows on your system)."), setupYabootAddEntry => __("You can add additional entries for yaboot, either for other operating systems, alternate kernels, or for an emergency boot image. For other OS's, the entry consists only of a label and the root partition. For Linux, there are a few possible options: * Label: this is simply the name you will have to type at the yaboot prompt to select this boot option. * Image: this would be the name of the kernel to boot. Typically, vmlinux or a variation of vmlinux with an extension. * Root: the \"root\" device or \"/\" for your Linux installation. * Append: on Apple hardware, the kernel append option is used quite often to assist in initializing video hardware, or to enable keyboard mouse button emulation for the often lacking 2nd and 3rd mouse buttons on a stock Apple mouse. The following are some examples: video=aty128fb:vmode:17,cmode:32,mclk:71 adb_buttons=103,111 hda=autotune video=atyfb:vmode:12,cmode:24 adb_buttons=103,111 * Initrd: this option can be used either to load initial modules, before the boot device is available, or to load a ramdisk image for an emergency boot situation. * Initrd-size: the default ramdisk size is generally 4,096 bytes. If you need to allocate a large ramdisk, this option can be used. * Read-write: normally the \"root\" partition is initially brought up in read-only, to allow a file system check before the system becomes \"live\". Here, you can override this option. * NoVideo: should the Apple video hardware prove to be exceptionally problematic, you can select this option to boot in \"novideo\" mode, with native frame buffer support. * Default: selects this entry as being the default Linux selection, selectable by just pressing ENTER at the yaboot prompt.

Yaboot's main options are: * Init Message: a simple text message that is displayed before the boot prompt. * Boot Device: indicate where you want to place the information required to boot to GNU/Linux. Generally, you setup a bootstrap partition earlier to hold this information. * Open Firmware Delay: unlike LILO, there are two delays available with yaboot. The first delay is measured in seconds and at this point, you can choose between CD, OF boot, MacOS or Linux. * Kernel Boot Timeout: this timeout is similar to the LILO boot delay. After selecting Linux, you will have this delay in 0.1 second before your default kernel description is selected. * Enable CD Boot?: checking this option allows you to choose \"C\" for CD at the first boot prompt. * Enable OF Boot?: checking this option allows you to choose \"N\" for Open Firmware at the first boot prompt. * Default OS: you can select which OS will boot by default when the Open Firmware Delay expires."), summary => __("Here are presented various parameters concerning your machine.
