It was suggested that I try the suse cd or the rescue floppy. Unfortunately, they both perform the same function: The execute the "installed os", meaning that the execute the mbr, and in my case run dos, a fine operating system, second only to linux, but its not linux.
Don't use the "boot installed os" from the initial boot screen. Start up the installation and go through the initial screens (I think it's just the language selection). You'll then get a screen where you select what to do. I think the choices are Install, Update and "boot installed os". That's where you should select boot installed.
Running the rescue page sets up a copy of linux in a ram disk. I am unable to mount my hda6, even after editing the /etc/fstab (unable to access the file system ext2)
What exactly do you type to mount it, and what exactly is the error message? //Anders
