Many thanks, Mark. I'm now up and running with a dual boot system. YaST and openSUSE did it all, and I didn't get the MBR nonsense I'd experienced previously :) BTW, no need to copy your replies to my personal e-mail. I read the openSUSE list regularly, and always if I'm expecting a reply to one of my questions.
