acceptLicense => 
N_("Before continuing, you should carefully read the terms of the license. It
covers the entire Mandrake Linux distribution. If you do agree with all the
terms in it, check the \"Accept\" box. If not, simply turn off your
computer."),

addUser => 
N_("GNU/Linux is a multi-user system, meaning each user can have their own
preferences, their own files and so on. You can read the ``Starter Guide''
to learn more about multi-user systems. But unlike \"root\", which is the
system administrator, the users you add at this point will not be
authorized to change anything except their own files and their own
configuration, protecting the system from unintentional or malicious
changes that impact the system as a whole. You will have to create at least
one regular user for yourself -- this is the account which you should use
for routine, day-to-day use. Although it is very easy to log in as \"root\"
to do anything and everything, it may also be very dangerous! A mistake
could mean that your system would not work any more. If you make a serious
mistake as a regular user, the worst that will happen is that you will lose
some information, but not affect the entire system.

The first field asks you for a real name. Of course, this is not mandatory
-- you can actually enter whatever you like. DrakX will use the first word
you typed in and copy it to the \"User name\" field, which is the name this
user will enter to log onto the system. If you like, you may override the
default and change the username. The next step is to enter a password. From
a security point of view, a non-privileged (regular) user password is not
as crucial as the \"root\" password, but that is no reason to neglect it by
making it blank or too simple: after all, your files could be the ones at
risk.

Once you click on \"Accept user\", you can add other users. Add a user for
each one of your friends: your father or your sister, for example. Click
\"Next ->\" when you have finished adding users.

Clicking the \"Advanced\" button allows you to change the default \"shell\"
for that user (bash by default).

When you are finished adding all users, you will be asked to choose a user
that can automatically log into the system when the computer boots up. If
you are interested in that feature (and do not care much about local
security), choose the desired user and window manager, then click \"Next
->\". If you are not interested in this feature, uncheck the \"Do you want
to use this feature?\" box."),

ask_mntpoint_s => 
N_("Here are Listed the existing Linux partitions detected on your hard drive.
You can keep the choices made by the wizard, since they are good for most
common installations. If you make any changes, you must at least define a
root partition (\"/\"). Do not choose too small a partition or you will not
be able to install enough software. If you want to store your data on a
separate partition, you will also need to create a \"/home\" partition
(only possible if you have more than one Linux partition available).

Each partition is listed as follows: \"Name\", \"Capacity\".

\"Name\" is structured: \"hard drive type\", \"hard drive number\",
\"partition number\" (for example, \"hda1\").

\"Hard drive type\" is \"hd\" if your hard drive is an IDE hard drive and
\"sd\" if it is a SCSI hard drive.

\"Hard drive number\" is always a letter after \"hd\" or \"sd\". For IDE
hard drives:

 * \"a\" means \"master hard drive on the primary IDE controller\";

 * \"b\" means \"slave hard drive on the primary IDE controller\";

 * \"c\" means \"master hard drive on the secondary IDE controller\";

 * \"d\" means \"slave hard drive on the secondary IDE controller\".

With SCSI hard drives, an \"a\" means \"lowest SCSI ID\", a \"b\" means
\"second lowest SCSI ID\", etc."),

chooseCd => 
N_("The Mandrake Linux installation is distributed on several CD-ROMs. DrakX
knows if a selected package is located on another CD-ROM so it will eject
the current CD and ask you to insert the correct CD as required."),

choosePackages => 
N_("It is now time to specify which programs you wish to install on your
system. There are thousands of packages available for Mandrake Linux, and
to make it simpler to manage the packages have been placed into groups of
similar applications.

Packages are sorted into groups corresponding to a particular use of your
machine. Mandrake Linux has four predefined installations available. You
can think of these installation classes as containers for various packages.
You can mix and match applications from the various containers, so a
``Workstation'' installation can still have applications from the
``Development'' container installed.

 * \"Workstation\": if you plan to use your machine as a workstation,
select one or more of the applications that are in the workstation
container.

 * \"Development\": if plan on using your machine for programming, choose
the appropriate packages from the container.

 * \"Server\": if your machine is intended to be a server, select which of
the more common services you wish to install on your machine.

 * \"Graphical Environment\": this is where you will choose your preferred
graphical environment. At least one must be selected if you want to have a
graphical interface available.

Moving the mouse cursor over a group name will display a short explanatory
text about that group. If you unselect all groups when performing a regular
installation (as opposed to an upgrade), a dialog will pop up proposing
different options for a minimal installation:

 * \"With X\": install the minimum number of packages possible to have a
working graphical desktop.

 * \"With basic documentation\": installs the base system plus basic
utilities and their documentation. This installation is suitable for
setting up a server.

 * \"Truly minimal install\": will install the absolute minimum number of
packages necessary to get a working Linux system. With this installation
you will only have a command line interface. The total size of this
installation is 65 megabytes.

You can check the \"Individual package selection\" box, which is useful if
you are familiar with the packages being offered or if you want to have
total control over what will be installed.

If you started the installation in \"Upgrade\" mode, you can unselect all
groups to avoid installing any new package. This is useful for repairing or
updating an existing system."),

choosePackagesTree => 
N_("If you told the installer that you wanted to individually select packages,
it will present a tree containing all packages classified by groups and
subgroups. While browsing the tree, you can select entire groups,
subgroups, or individual packages.

Whenever you select a package on the tree, a description appears on the
right to let you know the purpose of the package.

!! If a server package has been selected, either because you specifically
chose the individual package or because it was part of a group of packages,
you will be asked to confirm that you really want those servers to be
installed. By default Mandrake Linux will automatically start any installed
services at boot time. Even if they are safe and have no known issues at
the time the distribution was shipped, it is entirely possible that that
security holes are discovered after this version of Mandrake Linux was
finalized. If you do not know what a particular service is supposed to do
or why it is being installed, then click \"No\". Clicking \"Yes \" will
install the listed services and they will be started automatically by
default during boot. !!

The \"Automatic dependencies\" option is used to disable the warning dialog
which appears whenever the installer automatically selects a package to
resolve a dependency issue. Some packages have relationships between each
other such that installation of a package requires that some other program
is already installed. The installer can determine which packages are
required to satisfy a dependency to successfully complete the installation.

The tiny floppy disk icon at the bottom of the list allows you to load a
package list created during a previous installation. This is useful if you
have a number of machines that you wish to configure identically. Clicking
on this icon will ask you to insert a floppy disk previously created at the
end of another installation. See the second tip of last step on how to
create such a floppy."),

configureNetwork => 
N_("You will now set up your Internet/network connection. If you wish to
connect your computer to the Internet or to a local network, click \"Next
->\". Mandrake Linux will attempt to autodetect network devices and modems.
If this detection fails, uncheck the \"Use auto detection\" box. You may
also choose not to configure the network, or to do it later, in which case
clicking the \"Cancel\" button will take you to the next step.

When configuring your network, the available connections options are:
traditional modem, ISDN modem, ADSL connection, cable modem, and finally a
simple LAN connection (Ethernet).

We will not detail each configuration option - just make sure that you have
all the parameters, such as IP address, default gateway, DNS servers, etc.
from your Internet Service Provider or system administrator.

You can consult the ``Starter Guide'' chapter about Internet connections
for details about the configuration, or simply wait until your system is
installed and use the program described there to configure your connection."),

configurePrinter => 
N_("\"Printer\": clicking on the \"No Printer\" button will open the printer
configuration wizard. Consult the corresponding chapter of the ``Starter
Guide'' for more information on how to setup a new printer. The interface
presented there is similar to the one used during installation."),

configureServices => 
N_("This step is used to choose which services you wish to start at boot time.

DrakX will list all the services available on the current installation.
Review each one carefully and uncheck those which are not always needed at
boot time.

A short explanatory text will be displayed about a service when it is
selected. However, if you are not sure whether a service is useful or not,
it is safer to leave the default behavior.

!! At this stage, be very careful if you intend to use your machine as a
server: you will probably not want to start any services that you do not
need. Please remember that several services can be dangerous if they are
enabled on a server. In general, select only the services you really need.

configureTimezoneGMT => 
N_("GNU/Linux manages time in GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) and translates it to
local time according to the time zone you selected. If the clock on your
motherboard is set to local time, you may deactivate this by unselecting
\"Hardware clock set to GMT \", which will let GNU/Linux know that the
system clock and the hardware clock are in the same timezone. This is
useful when the machine also hosts another operating system like Windows.

The \"Automatic time synchronization \" option will automatically regulate
the clock by connecting to a remote time server on the Internet. For this
feature to work, you must have a working Internet connection. It is best to
choose a time server located near you. This option actually installs a time
server that can used by other machines on your local network."),

configureX_card_list =>

resolution. If you can see the message during the test and answer \"Yes\",
then DrakX will proceed to the next step. If you cannot see the message, it
means that some part of the autodetected configuration was incorrect and
the test will automatically end after 12 seconds, bringing you back to the
menu. Change settings until you get a correct graphical display.



Options

createBootdisk => 
N_("Checking \"Create a boot disk\" allows you to have a rescue boot media
handy.

The Mandrake Linux CD-ROM has a built-in rescue mode. You can access it by
booting the CD-ROM, pressing the >> F1<< key at boot and typing >>rescue<<
at the prompt. If your computer cannot boot from the CD-ROM, there are at
least two situations where having a boot floppy is critical:

 * when installing the bootloader, DrakX will rewrite the boot sector (MBR)
of your main disk (unless you are using another boot manager), to allow you
to start up with either Windows or GNU/Linux (assuming you have Windows on
your system). If at some point you need to reinstall Windows, the Microsoft
install process will rewrite the boot sector and remove your ability to
start GNU/Linux!

 * if a problem arises and you cannot start GNU/Linux from the hard disk,
this floppy will be the only means of starting up GNU/Linux. It contains a
fair number of system tools for restoring a system that has crashed due to
a power failure, an unfortunate typing error, a forgotten root password, or
any other reason.

If you say \"Yes\", you will be asked to insert a disk in the drive. The
floppy disk must be blank or have non-critical data on it - DrakX will
format the floppy and will rewrite the whole disk."),

doPartitionDisks => 
N_("At this point, you need to decide where you want to install the Mandrake
Linux operating system on your hard drive. If your hard drive is empty or
if an existing operating system is using all the available space you will
have to partition the drive. Basically, partitioning a hard drive consists
of logically dividing it to create the space needed to install your new
Mandrake Linux system.

Because the process of partitioning a hard drive is usually irreversible
and can lead to lost data if there is an existing operating system already
installed on the drive, partitioning can be intimidating and stressful if
you are an inexperienced user. Fortunately, DrakX includes a wizard which
simplifies this process. Before continuing with this step, read through the
rest of this section and above all, take your time.

Depending on your hard drive configuration, several options are available:

 * \"Use free space\": this option will perform an automatic partitioning
of your blank drive(s). If you use this option there will be no further
prompts.

 * \"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. You will then be asked to choose the mount points associated with
each of the partitions. The legacy mount points are selected by default,
and for the most part it's a good idea to keep them.

 * \"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 so, you can delete your
Microsoft Windows partition and data (see `` Erase entire disk'' solution)
or resize your Microsoft Windows FAT partition. Resizing can be performed
without the loss of any data, provided you previously defragment the
Windows partition and that it uses the FAT format. Backing up your data is
strongly recommended.. Using this option is recommended if you want to use
both Mandrake Linux and Microsoft Windows on the same computer.

   Before choosing this option, please understand that after this
procedure, the size of your Microsoft Windows partition will be smaller
then when you started. 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, because you will not be able to
undo your choice after you confirm.

   !! If you choose this option, all data on your disk will be deleted. !!

 * \"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. !!

 * \"Custom disk partitionning\": choose this option if you want to
manually partition your hard drive. Be careful -- it is a powerful but
dangerous choice and you can very easily lose all your data. That's why
this option is really only recommended if you have done something like this
before and have some experience. For more instructions on how to use the
DiskDrake utility, refer to the ``Managing Your Partitions '' section in
the ``Starter Guide''."),

exitInstall => 
N_("There you are. Installation is now complete and your GNU/Linux system is
ready to use. Just click \"Next ->\" to reboot the system. The first thing
you should see after your computer has finished doing its hardware tests is
the bootloader menu, giving you the choice of which operating system to
start.

The \"Advanced\" button (in Expert mode only) shows two more buttons to:

 * \"generate auto-install floppy\": to create an installation floppy disk
that will automatically perform a whole installation without the help of an
operator, similar to the installation you just configured.

   Note that two different options are available after clicking the button:

    * \"Replay\". This is a partially automated installation. The
partitioning step is the only interactive procedure.

    * \"Automated\". Fully automated installation: the hard disk is
completely rewritten, all data is lost.

   This feature is very handy when installing a number of similar machines.
See the Auto install section on our web site for more information.

 * \"Save packages selection\"(*): saves a list of the package selected in
this installation. To use this selection with another installation, insert
the floppy and start the installation. At the prompt, press the [F1] key
and type >>linux defcfg=\"floppy\" <<.

(*) You need a FAT-formatted floppy (to create one under GNU/Linux, type
\"mformat a:\")"),
