You should be able to mount the ISO image via a loopback device and then
tell Mandrake to install from a "directory". Unfortunately, I'm not sure
whether Mandrake's boot floppy has a loopback device support etc.
Basically, it should be something like:
mount /dos/mandrake.iso /our-mounted-iso/ -t iso9660 -o loop
