Welcome to the Mandrake Linux 9.0 graphical installer DrakX.

In the bottom panel of the installation program are help screens that offer advice each step of the way.

The colors of the "lights" in the left panel change as the installation progresses:

A green light is for steps which have been completed. At any point during the installation you may return to a completed step by selecting a green light with the mouse.

Orange is for the phase which is currently being processed.

And Red is for phases which haven't been reached yet.
