Suse has always ran on any system ive tried it on, but this one has got me stumped...
This is getting into thin air for me. Probably someone with more experience has some better ideas here. As you can pass arguments to the "boot: ... " yourself you could look what further arguments there are apart from ones set by the selection you do. A first try might be to go with the third option, I think "install safe mode" or something. You will see in the "boot: ..." line there are already a lot of things disabled. See whether that brings you further. Concerning further support, I am not sure which source has more experienced people, but I got a bit lost how many different support lists and forums there are listed under http://opensuse.org. So I don't know where there are more knowledgeable people, here in this mailing list or in any of the forums. One is for example http://www.suseforums.net. Maybe that gets you further.
