Doing the Repair, or even booting into and existing installation, using a CD/DVD does not get SLED 10.0 booted- it keeps claiming that it cannot find hda1 (where it's installed and is the only OS installed).
But put the same HD into the computer on which SLED was originally installed and- voila! hda1 miraculously becomes visible to SLED!
Make absolutely sure that you've got the drive plugged into the first HDD controller, not the second one, and plugged in as Master. This problem has nothing to do with Suse using any sort of copy protection, but is a software or hardware configuration problem. Never assume that one HDD in one physical machine is "the same as" the same HDD in another physical machine. They are two different environments unless all of the hardware on both PCs is identical. -- ----- stephan@s11n.net http://s11n.net "...pleasure is a grace and is not obedient to the commands of the will." -- Alan W.
