"Note: If you're haveing trouble getting the hard drive detected, pass
hda=16383,16,64 to the kernel (at the boot prompt, just tag it on to the
"install-kernel22")"
This was the magic bullet for me. once I did this, the cdrom was
correctly detected, as was the hard drive.
Thanks to whomever found this little bit of info! It enabled me to
install ydl 2.1 as well as the newest Mandrake Beta .
