Hehe, that's funny, I was just about to post the exact same question! :-) Thanks, works like a charm. I actually don't understand why Mandrake be default chooses to hide all these details. And it's ugly I find. The lilo bootup screen does look nice though, just not the graphical bootup. I always disabled it though the Mandrake control center if I remember correctly, but since this option isn't there anymore, I had no idea :-)
