medyo problematic nga i-install yung mandrake 8.1 at 8.2 in my experience.
This site may help:

ang default kernel nang 8.1 & 8.2 ay 2.4. I had a hard time installing
with this kernel. if you're installing 8.2, sa 2nd CD my isolinux option
where you could use kernel 2.2.
in my case, i installed mandrake 8.1 using kernel 2.2. tiyagaan nga
i-install sa AMD K6-2 with 56MB memory.
