I tried the install without DSL plugged in, and left it unplugged during bootup, but it still shows a black screen after the grub menu. I gave it plenty of time and the busy light on my case stopped flashing, sooo... I'm not sure what else to do here.

Startup computer, make room for installation of Suse. Shutdown computer, and unplug ethernet cable to dsl-modem. Install Suse from cd's or dvd. Reboot to check if dual boot works. Plug ethernet cable back in; internet connection works also in Suse.... hope this helps. regards, Roeland -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
