Adam....Is my assumption correct (in my opinion you haven't
been very clear about this) that you are able to install
Mandrake Linux 8.0 but when it comes time to boot the new
installation it freezes your laptop?
If so (I believe that your problem may have to do with the
frame buffer mode) please do this. When the lilo screen
comes up choose to boot in the 'linux-nonfb' mode.
