I cant scroll thru the kernel messages, but I can read the /var/log/boot.msg file using the other OS. I don't know much about that, but when comparing to the file on Suse9 I saw, that Suse10 doesn't mount any disk (as far as I understand). The part of boot.msg of Suse10 looks like this:
Mounting local file systems... proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,mode=0620,gid=5) nothing was mounted done
Things are a bit difficult when you cannot get more information. I guess, that the system stops working in boot.udev, which comes after boot.localfs at least on my system. What you can do, is boot the system with init=/bin/sh then run the different boot scripts in /etc/init.d, e.g. run /etc/init.d/boot.localfs start /etc/init.d/boot.udev start and see if it crashes there. Maybe even something like echo "foobar" > /dev/shm/foobar instead of the boot.udev kills the machine, then it would be a shm problem... Sorry, I have no idea what the cause is, and can only give some hints about how to do a bit of debugging.
