Suse 9.1 GUI will not load: Only command line
Hello, I am relativey new with Linux and hope someone can help:
I have been using a Linux machine at work (Suse 9.1) without any issues until this morning.
On turning on the machine, it goes through it's usual boot process.
here is what is different:
Before the screen with Suse logo comes up, the following message is briefly displayed: Scanning IDE Drives: No drive attached to the fasttrack controller- BIOS not loaded.
Then the Suse logo screen comes up showing a status bar that move along until it is near completion, and then just hangs there.
If I press F2, I get to the command line.
I do not understand why the GUI will not come up.
thank you.
