Hello Murray,

I have got the same machine (Dell Precision 670 workstation) here, 
and after trying severel ways of installing SuSE Linux 9.2 on it, 
I'm almost becoming desperate and I begin to hate SuSE Linux.
I just wonder if you finally succeeded to install SuSE 9.1 on your 
machine? If so, I'm asking you, how you did it. I really hope you 
can give me some advice.

Thanks in advance,
   Stefan
