I got SuSE 5.3 today, and this is what I did........ I have a 4 Gb EIDE HDD. I used PARTITION MAGIC to resize my current partition and shrank it down to 2 GB. Using PMagic again, I created a LINUX partition (1.5 GB) and a SWAP PARTITION (1/2 Gb) Then I used BOOT MAGIC ( something like LILO) and added the EXT2 partition to the menu. Everything is cool so far. I pop in the SuSE CD and restart. Computer boots from the CD, and I proceed with the installation procedure. Not a single hitch. SuSE installs flawlessly. Then it starts Linux. I log in as ROOT. Everything proceeds perfectly. Now, what I did was type "SAX" The configurator program came on and by mistake I chose the wrong monitor. So I say save changes, and it tells me that it is attempting to start the X system. My monitor goes crazy. Because of the wrong settings that I chose. I hard boot the computer. POST flys by, and then BOOT MAGIC comes up...... I select linux, and it tries to hand over control to the linux partition. That's where my system dies. It just doesn't boot. What am I doing wrong? v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^ v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^ Zulfiqar Naushad zulfiqar@shaw.wave.ca ICQ UIN: 6001618 <A HREF="http://members.tor.shaw.wave.ca/~zulfiqar/"><A HREF="http://members.tor.shaw.wave.ca/~zulfiqar/</A">http://members.tor.shaw.wave.ca/~zulfiqar/</A</A>> v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^ v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^v^ - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e Check out the SuSE-FAQ at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A">http://www.suse.com/Support/Doku/FAQ/</A</A>> and the archiv at <A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html"><A HREF="http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A">http://www.suse.com/Mailinglists/suse-linux-e/index.html</A</A>>
