I believe the instructions on the installer should say to insert the disk or
press ESCAPE (or some other key) if you don't have it.

Subject: [SLUG] More Mandrake 10 issues!

Since I have two linux boxes, I decided to install Mandrake 10 on my other
box. Got thru all 3 cd's and about 98 % of the install when it asked me for
CD 4. Problem. There is no CD 4 or at least I can't find it on any FTP
site. All the ftp sites show CD 1,2 and 3. Where is CD 4? Stuck at 98% of
the install and need help. Anyone?
