I don't remember what I should look for - someone had a question
about a suse install, that it had immediately started formatting
their drive or something. Well, I just booted the suse floppies,
and it gave me a very cute splash screen with some kind of creature
and "welcome" in a variety of languages/fonts, then a boot menu a
lot like LILO's, but GUI:

Boot from Hard Disk
Installation
Installation - ACPI disabled
Installation - Safe Settings
Manual Installation
Rescue System

in a box, a text line for boot options, then a sort of menu bar on the
bottom:
F1 Help F2 1280 x 1024 F3 CD-ROM F4 English F5 Silent F6 Driver Update

Well, Boot from Hard Disk boots my LILO.
Installation asks for bootdisk 2 and 3, then asks for the CD. Very
snazzy eye candy, with a selection of menus and stuff, but it didn't
start formatting my drive. Maybe because I didn't put a CD in and
say, "Install".

But one of the options was "shut down", and it shut the computer
down!

How can I make my Slack do that?

(BTW, I don't think I'm going to bother to install Suse just to look
at it - I'm already a Slack Advocate! :-)

But I wanted to be able to say, "See? It didn't do mine." >:->

Cheers!
