The answer is to NOT allow the install of the earlier suse write its boot 
loader to the MBR (master boot record)   This assumes you have your current 
grub written in the MBR.

Have tne new install write its loader to the partition you are installing it 
on (/boot   or   /   depending on how you partition the older release)  and 
after the install,  add a new entry to your  10.2   /boot/grub/menu.lst  to 
boot the older release from its  /boot/<kernel>  and initrd.
