Yes... for the first time without jumping through
hoops (well almost).... I was able to get a SUSE dist
to install and boot off of my HW RAID (LSI Megaraid Elite 1600).
Boot drive is a RAID 10.

The only problem is my G4 Ti4600 ... and that's a problem
most likely caused by Nvidia's disdain for open source.

For others... check the Nvidia forum for a more stable
version of the Nvidia driver.. otherwise, it will lock up
on you most of the time.

Good job SUSE!!

Nvidia... you need to dust off your drivers a bit...
(I think they're finding it tough to support all
the variations).
