Is it hanging on the floppy drive?  I installed Mandrake on a DELL Laptop also and even though I never had the floppy drive in the machine it automagically mounted it during startup.  Then it would hang trying to unmount it.  If this is the case, edit the /etc/fstab and comment out the line that starts with /mnt/floppy...
Good luck!

I'm having several problems with Mandrake on my laptop.
I have a Xircom Cardbus Ethernet 100 + Modem card and since I've installed Mandrake 7.2 I can't get an ip address when booting into Linux. I had Red Hat 6.2 and it worked fine then... Any thoughts?
Also, when shutting down Linux it's not unmounting my harddrive. Any thoughts on this one?

Thanks in advance,
Roger
