The additional RAM didn't work so I disinstalled it. Over the years
I've changed and added things to the insides of various computers so
I'm somewhat familiar with the process.
Since the RAM installation adventure the system doesn't boot properly.
I would have thought that I possibly dislodged something during the
process, however the system boots fine into Windows and everything works
like it should.
behaviour could be explained by having parts of your Linux distribution
installed on more than one drive. For example, your system boots Windows
and loads the "/boot" partition for Suse, because the physical hard drive
where it is installed is working correctly. Check that all other drives
are not disconnected in some way. BTW, does "sde" seem to be a reasonable
assignment for your system?
Are you using SCSI or SATA drives? The new SATA style connectors
"snap" into place, IIRC. SCSI use the older wide ribbon cables.
