I can't go to the state where a console is available.
By looking at the results of Ctrl-Alt-F1, I found the following messages :

- on Ctrl-Alt-F3
insmod /modules/ata_piix.ko
Looing for a Suse Linux CD ..
Checking CD /dev/sr0
That didn't work ....

- on Ctrl-Alt-F4

Does it help you to figure out what is my problem ?
