Chris, thanks for your advice. Here's my hand writing information :
I've purchased the box set of Mandrake 7.0 Deluxe 2 weeks ago and tried to
install into both my desktop pc & notebook.
It's fabulous to see everything is inside the box. I can successfully
install it into my desktop, though it is very old model with AMD K6-333....
However, I cannot install Mandrake 7.0 into my core & always using Acer
TravelMate 332T notebook.
I got the error message after the installation & reboot it, I press <ENTER>
at LILO prompt, as follows :
--------------------
boot : linux
.....
...

Thanks for your great help
