Last night, I tried to rebuild my boot loader. I made use of
$/sbin/lilo
and now I my PC can load the green main graphical menu before starting 
any O.S.
Choosing the option Linux isn't yet a so good idea. Some errors appeared:
read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev03:0a, block 
64, size 1024)
read_super_block: can't find a reiserfs filesystem on (dev03:0a, block 
8, size 1024)
kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:0a

Reading the tutorial
LILO-crash-rescue-HOWTO
that comes with SuSE CD #1 it is said to add some lines to fstab

(In this case I already know that my /boot, /usr, /bar, ...partitions 
are on hda6)
Sorry I'm a beginner and I don't know whether it applies or not to me.
'Could you help again?
