On order 03152004141017-0086 for L000-207 Mandrakelinux 10.0 ( 4 CD Set), the 
first CD fails to boot on my older, experimental system, linux3. It also 
fails to boot on my newer, primary system, lilac. On both systems the 
questionable CD is readable and both systems are running Mandrake-Linux 9.2 
which in turn was booted and loaded from your CDs for Mandrake-Linux 9.2. 

I am assuming that there is a problem with the boot sector on CD 1. I will 
attempt the use of a floppy boot on this set of CDs. 

You may wish to verify that your QC is checking the bootability of CD 1.
