Interesting.  With the Knoppix CD, which reads fine from Windows on the target 
PC, when I boot to the CD, it gives me the splash screen, I press Enter to load 
Knoppix and -- I get the one cursor flashing in the top left hand corner.

So, I guess it's not a hard drive issue, since Knoppix doesn't use the hard 
drive, right?

And, both Suse and Knoppix are reading enough of the CD to be able to display 
the install menu/splash screen, which look ok, so it's not the graphics driver, 
probably.

So, that leaves -- ???  the CPU?  not RAM, or could it be?

The reason I was aiming for Suse is that my Novell 5.12 server (yes, old, I 
know, but reliable and has been for years), is starting to sound very squeaky.  
So, my goal was to add a Suse server to my network, transfer all the data, and 
return the 5.12 server.

That's not looking likely with this particular hardware device, huh?  Sigh.
