Problems booting Suse 9.3
 
Hi Folks

I just upgraded my Suse 9.2 Install to 9.3 but now it won't boot.

When it tries to load X the screen goes black and the PC seems to lock up. I can't switch to a different screen and even leaving it for hours makes no difference.

I'm guessing it's because I had installed the ATI drivers in 9.2 and it's trying to use them but the config doesn't work for 9.3.

I've tried playing around with the boot loader but can't find a way to prevent it loading X so I can check the config.

Any suggestions - It's AMD64 if that makes any difference.

Cheers!

type linux 3 from the grub screen, login as root, run sax2 to reconfigure the xserver
