I've been trying to install openSuse 11.1 on my MacBook Pro (old model Core Duo version) along side OS X.
I followed the instructions on the suse wiki,
http://en.opensuse.org/Installation_...ro_Intel_(x86)
but I cannot get refit to sync my GPT table with the MBR; gptsync returns "analysis inconlusive."
I originally started with two partitions on the system (one for EFI, one for OS X). I booted into suse using a live CD and used parted to create two additional partitions (one ext3, one swap). I then installed 11.1 on these partitions. However, if I try to boot into suse at the refit boot screen, the system just goes to a black screen.
Partition Inspector returns the following partition profiles:

Thanks in advance for the help.
