Can you verify if the game starts normally on a Windows installation, using
your current gfx card? There is a known problem with the game using ATi cards
on Windows too, when hardware acceleration is used, and the symptom is similar
to yours (black screen after the intro).
You can find many articles about that on the net.

You can try running the game in software mode, by changing a pair of registry
keys:
under 'HKCU/Software/Bullfrog Productions Ltd/Dungeon Keeper
II/Configuration/Video'
change the value of 'Engine Id' to 4
and change 'Screen Hardware 3D' to 0.
Does the game start normally that way?
