If you upgrade an existing Windows NT based (i.e. NT/2k/XP), Windows setup will not tamper with the actual boot loader, since that is already installed. At least, I haven't had that happen to me - ymmv. Usually it just changes your c:\boot.ini (NT bootloader's config file) to say Winows XP instead of whatever you had. Even if it does change the MBR, just boot off your SUSE cd and fix it as described earlier. Hans
