Boot from the mandrake CD1
I did that
press F1 for more options and then enter rescue at the prompt.
I did that
when it comes up, in rescue mode, type: chroot /mnt
This didn't work. When it came up in resue mode, I chose "console" and then entered, chroot/mnt. I got an error. "bash no such file or directory" I got help for chroot. It says, chroot NEWROOT [options] or chroot command. Chroot gives me an error, "no such directory as NEWROOT"
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Follow Franki's instructions but ignore the chroot /mnt part and instead choose "Mount your partitions in /mnt" from the menu that comes up.
Then when it goes back to this same menu choose "Go to console".
Continue with Franki's instructions.

Oh well, I was close, its good to know mandrake have not totally changed the way it works.
