Suhail,

Sounds like a misplaced grub install. SuSE probably had grub in the MBR, replaced by SL's grub. The chainloader +1 is trying to load a bootloader (grub) off partition 10 of the disk, which isn't there. You'll either need to modify SL's grub to boot SuSE similar to how it boots SL (non-chainloader method) or boot up SuSE from a rescue disk and install its grub into the partition instead of the MBR.

Hope that helps,
Mark

hi all
i am using SL 5.1 64 bit version. prior to installing SL, i was having opensuse 10.3. after installation of SL i am not able to boot into my suse. suse was having two hd partitions. i gave the address of suse while installing SL. i am getting the following error message:
Booting 'opensuse 10.3'
root noverify (hd0,10)
chainloder +1
Error 13: Invalid or unsuspected executable format
Press any key to continue...
after this it returns to the listing of OS.
i was suspecting of giving wrong root partition, but i tried by giving both partition addresses while installing SL.....but it didn't solve the problem.
Please Help
