Are you kidding??????

After 10 years of (mostly Debian related) Linux, this morning I did my first OpenSuse install (12.2). To avoid having to download twice (CD then updates) I did net install of a XFCE desktop. An hour or two later there were 145 updates....so much for the net install being current. After installing those 145 updates, I did the required rebooted. Now all I have is the top line of a GRUB menu--whereupon the system stalls.

That's it...

Now what?

I tried the "rescue" boot on the netinstall CD---apparanty that does nothing boot to runlevel3, that's all it did for me.
Need I re-download everything again...twice!?! Just to see if it's repeatable?
Or thow-in the towel & try Mint?

Really not impressed so far.
