If this person is a new user.. new to Linux, they are going to be rather annoyed and frustrated (personal experience through a very heated phone call from a friend who had exactly this problem/experience with his laptop). Usually (in my experience) a laptop user needs a fast boot up... openSUSE is reasonable most of the time... until ext3 does its fsck.
Tell them to use hybernation: the computer awakes almost in seconds, ready to use, and no fsck.

Works (if openSuSE powersaved supports hybernation for that model) and if the laptop is _not_ moved between different networks while it is asleep. Hostnames and resolv.conf can become a problem in that case. -- David C. Rankin, J.D., P.E.
