Thanks Stew, I have reinstall MDK with the benh kernel and now it boots fine.
The only problem that have found with the install is that it can not find the modules for the benh kernel. There is no /lib/modules/2.4.20-benh-9mdk directory, only a /lib/modules/2.4.21-0.13mdk.

The drivers are modular, so you need the correct initrd to be able to mount / and finish the boot. Are you using the ext3 one? -- Stew Benedict -- MandrakeSoft
