You will be unable to set it to 800x600 _after_ installation if the monitor already blacks out. The method that worked for me is to let the system boot (even with the black screen), change consoles (CTRL+ALT+F4) then login, use Sax2, change the resolution via Sax2 (safest would be 800x600 or 1024x768), save, then reboot.
The most optimal thing to do is to set the resolution to 800x600 _during_ the course of the installation since SuSE allows you to configure your hardware during the second phase of installation. You can even test during this part if the resolution will work or not. SuSE has 2 installation phases. First phase does the partitioning, package selection, and copying of files to the hard drive. The installer during this phase runs from the installer disc. Second phase runs from the hard drive and will be incharge of setting the accounts, and configuration of devices.
