Almost forgot to make sure you have noticed what Anders Johansson brought up about another system on hdb. Sorry I failed to mention that at the beginning.
Learning is a life long process that begins when we are born. Anyway, your other system was not in your menu.lst IIRC. How do you boot into it? Do you manually change the boot order in BIOS? I think you mentioned it is Debian. You could easily add it to your SUSE menu.lst (no need to reinstall grub) to gracefully boot into either system. HTH
The Debian install set up a "select" screen where I can choose the system to boot into, much as SuSE does if it is the second sys to be installed. This all works, and Debian boots fine, although I felt I was getting in over my head at the point where the gui was to be installed, and between doing research before proceeding and trying to get the most out of SuSE 10.1 I haven't found time to get back to it yet. Their documentation seems to be much more extensive, and as I soon found, much more necessary. Any way, I was in grub on the other computer when this mail came in. All set to try out your instructions and send you a success report. --ED--
