That is just OSX telling Mandrake to "fuck off, this is my territory".

No seriously, I don't know...maybe it is a conflict with your gfx chipset and Mandrake for PPC. Maybe your gfx card/onboard gfx chipset  has some damaged ram or you may have damaged system Ram(shared wth onboard gfx chipset?).

It's hard telling. It could even just be a bad burn. Try re-burning the ISO(assuming you downloaded Mandrake).
