           Summary: Can't Navigate Boot Menu After Booting From Install DVD
           Product: openSUSE 10.2
           Version: Alpha 5
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: SuSE Other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: P5 - None
         Component: Installation
        AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

In openSUSE 10.2 Alpha 5, after booting from the install DVD I am unable to
navigate the boot menu to choose from any of the options. The menu looks normal
except for a small black box in the upper left-hand corner of the screen. The
box contains two columns, one titled 'data', the other titled 'prog', each has
a number of hex values listed below it. When I press a key the values decrease
until the value of the row labeled '1'  becomes zero, at which time the boot
menu disappears and I'm left with only a black console screen and a 'boot:'
prompt.

I suspect it has something to do with the fact that I have two video cards as I
don't have the same problem on similar systems. The on-board video (ATi Rage
XL) cannot be disabled in the BIOS, the monitor is connected to a Nvidia 6800
GS AGP. Please let me know if I can provide any more info. Thanks.

Jakob Podjan
