I get this behavior also, but I can still run Win4Lin.

I have had no success compiling a kernel using the Win4Lin patch and the 
Mandrake-supplied source, however, I read a post on their expert list that 
mentions a required "make mrproper" before beginning compilation because the 
sources aren't clean. I'll try again.

In the meantime, I've downloaded the generic kernel found at 
http://www.netraverse.com/member/downloads/kernel_prepatched.php
but I will have to generate an initrd for it so I can use it (I use reiserfs, 
and I'll have to see if it includes reiserfs -- some of teh Win4Lin-supplied 
kernels don't).
