it should be saying ['user'@'computer name' 'folder']$
if your logged in as root there will be a '#' instead of '$'.

I wouldnt have recommended doing a default install. Unless your using anything other than Mandrake. Every time I have installed Linux I went through each individual package and chose out of the thousands of different choices for packages exactly what i wanted.
