Hi James; You should be able to complete the installation and reboot by booting from PartedMagic (or other rescue disk) and renaming /boot/grub/menu.lst to something else and renaming /boot/grub/menu.lst.old to /boot/grub/menu.lst.
I'll have to give that a try.
Also, if you had other distros on the computer, you will have to edit menu.lst to add the appropriate stanzas for them.
No other distro. Just Windows 7. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
