So I tried NOHOTPLUG=YES as a boot parameter, and then NOHOTPLUG=YES and NOCOLDPLUG=YES, but boot is still hanging in the same places - it seems that these boot parameters don't work in 9.0.

I'm about ready to conclude that the SuSE desktop is not ready for prime time, and that SuSE doesn't care. I know that's harsh - but skimpy and apparently inaccurate documentation along with too much stuff that does not work like HP printers/Scanners (only works under root)/PC Webcams and meaningless error messages/unstable applications/too much system maintenance have tolerance limits in users, especially me. Too much time, not enough results.
I short, I'm bummed about it. Larry Johnson, KeepItSimpleEngineering,Inc.
Why are you judging Suse on an *old* version, that seems to make very little good technological sense. You need to run 9.1 with all of the updates before making any valid judgments about whether or not "SuSE" is "ready for prime time". I have to say that the powers-that-be continue to insist upon Microsoft products where I work and we suffer *daily* troubles with lost files, crashing windows, incompatibilities, unnecessary virus vulnerabilities, constant needs for "critical security updates", etc. In the real world there is no perfect desktop but I have chosen Suse 9.1 and run it on my notebook at home and at work -- interfaced with the lesser Microsoft machines -- because I trust it for security and stability that no version of MS Windows has ever offered. IMHO, YMMV ... ;-) -- Thanks! & 73, doc kd4e West Central Florida 100% Linux.
