A few questions regarding reinstalling
Hello
I was doing some testing on what turned out to be a dodgy motherboard. This involved me reinstalling windows several times on both of my hard disks (to make sure there wasn't a problem there). So, I have lost my GRUB boot menu for my SuSE install.
Do I have to do a total reinstall of Linux if I change the motherboard/processor, as I have to with Windows?
Is there any way to get GRUB back so I can boot into my SuSE install?

boot up from SuSe installation CD/DVD and select Boot from Harddisk option. boot up SuSe and log in as root. execute this code in terminal/konsole
in case, you have SATA Harddisk, replace hda with sda.Code:grub-install /dev/hda
CasperIt is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Try This Man
if you change your motherboard you have to install the linux once again..
try "grub-install dev/hda" in the terminal...if not possible boot from the installation CD and reinstallation configures the new drivers for your motherboard..if you use a SATA then replace "hda" with "sda"...try or refer to me once again
