Trouble with Mandrake

Hello there, I've just installed Mandrake, with no problems whatsoever. However, every time i try to boot linux, it reads 'finding module dependencies' and then just stops the booting process. Has anyone any ideas on how to fix this?.

Interesting...I just had this happen to me. Mandrake did not like a zip disk inserted into the zip drive.
 
It doesn't like some piece of hardware that you have. By any chance, do you have a zip disk or usb stick inserted when you boot?
 
Did you insert a piece of hardware/medium like this after the install?

I've had it hang there with me before, usually after an install. If I shut my box down completely and count thirty seconds, then reboot, that usually fixes it.
