what did u put for the admin account ? i think on mine it was root and the pwd i choosed

It didn't give me a choice. I'm writing this from within Mandrake, I can get here by booting a floppy. It will let me configure the boot loader, but it just tells me that there are conflicts with LILO. Do you know how I would go about choosing Grub?

i think you will need to start the xserver, but i have no clue how to do it.
