Trouble installing mandrake 9.2
I'm trying to install MD 9. 2. I'm running Windows XP pro on a P4 3,2 with RAID and a LOT of stuff. . . The installation starts normal, but when it's going in to second stage install, it freezes. Can anyone tell me what i'mn doing wrong?.

Most often these failures are due to hardware problems. Any reason why you are trying Mandrake 9.2 rather than Mandrake 10? Remember Mandrake 9.2 may have been released before support for some of your hardware was added.
One issue can be the raid. Is it enabled (do you have a raid array)?
Give us some more information on the system, rather than "a lot of stuff."
Video card?
Status of the raid in your system? Onboard raid, via a controller card...? Promise or Highpoint raid?
Also, installs can fail due to bad iso burns. If you burned your own iso's, did you burn them at a faster speed than 4X or 8X? ISO files like to burned at a slow speed.
