    Absent any responses I have tried booting from the 9.1 CD and
    running Installation and Repair -- bad news there!

    When I ran Repair I received a bunch of unable to repair errors
    on

    sysconfig-0.31.0-1.5.i586
    postfix-2.0.19_20040312-11.i586
    filesystem-9.1.0.i586
    hotplug-0.44-32.noarch

    When Retry failed and I selected Ignore I received the message
    "Verifying base packages failed" and no further help ... in
    fact the system locked up and required a cold restart.

    I am guessing that the Install-Repair from the CD is badly
    handling the updates from Suse following the initial install.

    What might have caused this mess and am I now faced with the
    loss of everything and a fresh reinstall?

    Thanks! dmc
