Ok, I posted the original bug. People with the same problem could you try 
kernel-2.4.22-12.tmb.1mdk (I think it's in Contrib or Cooker contrib). It seems
to have fixed all problems with me (ACPI update??).

Hello,

Following bug 4945 and 5877 and thanks to the help of ricksafe.casablanca, it
appears that Mandrake Linux does not load on machines with no parellel port when
acpi=on.
On such machines harddrake always crashes during boot and if harddrake is
disabled, the user cannot log on.
The fix that was proposed is to remove the lines concerning the parallel port in
/etc/modules.devfs. This allows to log in. However, the harddrake service still
fails (and hangs the computer).
I have tested this on two machines (laptop with no floppy and desktop computer
with LS-120). On these machines, neither lspcidrake, not cat /pro/pci hang the
computer (with the fix above).

Emmanuel
