    Hello,

    Impossible is not French, so after a few days of trials, I succeeded in
    installing SuSE 9.3 Professional.

    My config : Asus P5WD2 premium with :
    - Intel pentium extreme edition
    - IDE DVD-Rom as master
    - IDE DVD RW as slave
    - T7k250 Sata disk
    - 7k500 Sata disk

    My BIOS configuration :
    - IDE standard, enhanced mode, SATA
    - USB disabled ( during Linux install only since install freezes with
    USB enabled )

    How to install (with the DVD) :
    - at boot choose your language with F4 and your 32bit or 64bit with F6
    (I didn't yet try 64bit)
    - type : manual=1 as boot parameter
    - then go ...

    During manual installation :
    - install kernel modules -> SCSI/Raid/IDE modules -> piix
    - install kernel modules -> SCSI/Raid/IDE modules -> ata_piix

    Then choose : start installation.

    Et voilą ....

    Good luck.

    Michel.
