Oh, forgot to mention the other BIOS settings you may want to check:
PNP OS Installed (or may be called Plug'n'Play OS Installed)-- set it to NO
And to avoid some problems with your Printer being automatically detected and installed:
Parallel Port Mode-- set it to ECP+EPP (or at least ECP or EPP) and have the printer connected and turned on during the Mandrake Installation.
When the System Resources screen comes up during the Install, go to the Printer Section and make sure you do a Print Test Page.
HTH, The Other
