I had that problem as well. I solved it by creating a small bootable dos
partition and then running /dosutils/autoboot/install.bat. This boots into a
menu where one of the items is DrakX from CD-rom.
Good luck.

Subject: [newbie] Installation of Mandrake 7.0
I just tried to install mandrake 7.0, but is doesn't work. It says that
there is not a mandrake cdrom in the cdromdrive and hangs after that (during
the cdromprobing).
My cdrom is an atapi liteon 32x/aku.
I've tried to put the cdrom on a fat32partition, but that also doesn't work
Please help
