I used to have the same problem on my ze4262. Mandrake kernels have both
APM and ACPI compiled in and this fact seems to mess up the whole thing,
that's why they set acpi off by default. I managed to fix this issue
upgrading the kernel to 2.4.21-0.18mdk (got it from mandrake upgrade)
and compiling it without APM and APIC (this seems to cause the boot
process to freeze at "using PCI cofiguration 1", or something like
that). Mandrake kernel already have the ACPI patch applied, so don't
patch it, just start compiling.
