[ltp] Mandrake on a T22 Install Problem

[Andrew Crawford]

I not only had problems with the trackpoint installing Mandrake 8.0 on my 
T22, I couldn't get it to complete the install.  It freezes a few steps in 
(one step after partitioning and formatting, IIRC.)  Same freeze in 
graphical or text mode install.  I fell back and installed 7.2.

Please let me know if you get 8.0 to install.
