This is a bit heavy, because I extract the original disk from my laptop and put a test disk instead. When tested, back to the originale configuration. Note that I need for installation to pass the option noauto orelse the installation process hangs at some point. That was the same with Mandrake 10.0 that is working, and also with Mandrake 10.1 with no lvm used and that is then working also. Here are the messages at the end of the boot process. If more is needed let me know. ... Starting udev Making device-mapper control mode Scanning logical volumes Partial mode. Incomplete Volume groups will be activated read-only. Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while ... No volume groups found Activating logical volumes Partial mode. Incomplete Volume groups will be activated read-only.

Thanks and regards I Will report that to Mandrake.
