Hi. A while ago I reported a boot issue with SUSE 9.3, whereby I'm just
getting a grub prompt. Someone replied, saying this is a menu. Not here it
isn't. It's just a prompt with a flashing cursor. I've only just got sighted
help to check this out. No matter what I do from the GRUB prompt, I get an
error on screen. This is definitely not the way that the previous versions of
SUSE installers worked. Is there anywhere I can download the installation and
administration manuals, as in the printed editions? Those are currently
inaccessible and if I can't download them I may have to waste hours scanning
them, <smile>. But I have to say that my initial comments on what little I've
seen of SUSE 9.3, what a waste of money ... won't even boot into the installer
on the bootable CD. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come, now that Novel
has its hands on the product.
