Back on the original ext3 HD as /dev/sdb1, everything works.
title 2.6.24-rc3-git5-smp
kernel /boot/2.6.24-rc3-git5-smp root=/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD3200AAKS-_WD-WCAPZ1455963-part1 vga=0x31a resume=/dev/sdb2 splash=silent showopts elevator=cfq
initrd /boot/initrd2.6.24-rc3-git5-smp

Any ideas?

with the new hard-drive, boot with a "Live" or "Install" cd and choose
"Boot Installed System"

reinstall the grub from your installed system.


Doubtful as it won't boot the installed system, i.e from HD, "Rescue" seems more likely and I've used the 10.3 x86_64 DVD. When I choose "Repair System" it fails not finding yast2, but I shall try the "Live" as that may have yast2 on it.
Regards
Sid.
