I have tried installing 8.1 5 or 6 times now and its always the same problem it hangs just after the 'Welcome to Mandrake Linux Press I for interactive..' message or after the 'Configuring kernel parameters' message.
Anyway I have changed filesystems and partitioning to see if that helps I have also tried removing Aurora during the installation (I saw a message saying that it had caused someone else's installation to hang) I have booted from the rescue system and checked /var/log/messages but its always empty. I've tried changing LOGLEVEL to 5 in /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions but still nothing is logged so I can't find out what is going on. My next step is to edit /etc/rc.d/rc.sysint to add more logging to find out where it hangs. If anyone can shed some light it would be great Thanks Nick
