I'm a user who just tried to install openSuse 10.3 on my notebook, where I ran
Windows and some older Linux version. From that Linux version I had Grub as my
bootmanager installed.
So, the real problem with the error whilest mounting a NTFS partition which is
in Hibernate state, is: the installation procedure already formatted my old
linux partition, which means: Grub doesn't work anymore - and the notebook
cannot be booted anymore!!!
So, if your installation procedure must mount an NTFS partition (why?) and it
discovers an error mounting it: please, do run this script part BEFORE you
format the designated Linux partition!
