I DON’T KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN!!
-Mandrake Linux. (Is that distro even still around?)
It turn into mandriva when mandrake bought conectiva amid a legal battle for the name with a comic books company, owners of the character Mandrake.
The last version was launched in 2011, and the company closed in 2015. Their most prominent derivatives were Open Mandriva, Mageia, PC Linux, and Rosalinux.
Mageia was founded with most of the developers from mandriva (or so Wikipedia says)
my first linux distro. I got it from a german magazine which came with 6 cds of it.
I got it from a book on my dad’s shelf. 6cds.
Basically Mandrake Linux became Mandriva linux in 2005, then in 2011 the distro was killed due to financial problems, but the community decided to continue the distro, creating OpenMandriva Lx. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenMandriva_Lx
