Hi, I'm using a Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo D series portable (P4, 30gyg HD & 512 MB RAM) with SUSE 9.2. At a given moment in a normal kde-linux session, after the kde-screensaver turned on, the only thing I got was a black screen. No keyboard combination worked, etc ... Restarted my pc (manually) and I was still having a black screen. Even the bios boot options where gone (you know, when turn on your pc usually the first thing you get is the manufactors logo and some bios options (F2, F8, F10). After several attempts (guess after 1 hour) I finally got the Siemens Logo and I was able to start up the bios. But it did not start my Linux OS. I got a black screen with "Insert system diskette and press Enter key to reboot". When inserting the Suse cd-rom, I was able to boot my OS. This sounded to me like an error in the /mbr. I've tried several times to repair/reinstall (different) bootloaders, but still the same problem. Finally I decided to format my whole HD (using Partition Magic) and to reinstall Suse. And guess what, I'm still having the same problem: "Insert system diskette and press Enter key to reboot" which I can solve through booting with the cd. I've tried different bios-settings for booting & several bootloaders. My question(s): 1. Does anybody recognizes this problem? 2. Is this a hardware/software/bios/mbr problem? 3. What else could I try? Thanks for your time, Rik rik at onckelinx dot be
