login as root (you should have set the password during install) and then run 'startx'. if you want to load to a graphical login screen, then go straight to kde, (im not sure if this is the same in mandrake), as root, open /etc/inittab. then change the line: id:3:initdefault: to: id:4:initdefault: and reboot.
