Re:Nvm, I installed it correctly… Turns out it was a bad PC133 SDRAM stick.
Re:this may sound noobish, but how do i install grub?
if i need to put it on a floppy, how do i do that?
Re:Sounds like you didn't install GRUB. Just run the installation again and do the boot loader install again. You don't have to reinstall the system.
Re:NTLDR is the bootloader for Microsoft Windows. While you installed SuSE 9.1 did you configure the bootloader for it to be on the first sector of the drive (bootloader being LILO or GRUB) If not that is what you will have to do and the easiest way I know how to do it is to go through the installation process again and configure it that way.
