I have just installed Mandrake 10OE for the millionth time and finally decided to seek some help. Each time following a fresh installation, the boot hangs just after "Activating Swap Partition [OK]". I just cant figure out what the problem could be. Long Googling sessions and such have turned up no subsequent fixes for my problem.

It's mounting your filesystems at that point. Maybe get a livecd from some other distro and post your /etc/fstab
