Thanks for suggestions, but I tried pressing both at different times in the
boot process, but it did nothing. Exactly when during the boot should I be
pressing it? Unfortunately, the screen locks up and goes black just as the
screen shows the Mandrake logo and the login prompt, so I can't do anything
including login.

Any other ideas?
