Screen is black, hd works a little bit and then only silence. Can get out of it by pressing ctrl c or move to F2 and back to F1 where I get the Suse border with somewhere the message, starting. Ctrl C brings me back my cursor. I have already deleted the X86 config file as that file could be the reason of my troubles. The automatic rebuild is of the same size and has the same contents as the old ones. The yast lets me see the video card installed and give me the choice to use console or to use X. No X is possible after finishing the setup and a sax start as expected is not done. AJ>> I started looking into the various log files but AJ>have no AJ>> idea where to find answers.
