Does Mandrake 8.1 have a partition manager utility
similar to fdisk or disk druid?

The Mandrake installer uses a graphical program called DiskDrake, you can
scrap all of the partitions there, and try re-installing it. It sounds
like it could be a swap partition related problem?

Kindest Regards,

There most certainly is. Simply run, as root:
/usr/sbin/diskdrake
I haven't used it from an existing installation before, but I'm sure it is

Have fun!
