What are the choices of logging in that you get and which are you choosing? This is a very old version of SuSE and I need to search my memory banks.

I'll take a wild guess and say that you are attempting to login at disagnostic mode or console mode.

Try choosing the first menu option. If you get the same response, try typing in startx (hit the enter key) at the command prompt.

Hi Rajpatel,
At a guess it sounds like you might be right Danleff.
Rajpatel what happens if you type ' rescue ' at that login prompt?

"But as being first time user of Linux"

remember linux is case senstive, so no caps lock etc. All lower case!

"At first I am able to see the window where it ask preference of boot in"

Out of interest what options are you presented with?

" “(none) login:” "

Just out of interest again! have you just pressed the enter key? or entered ' none ' at this prompt??
.........
Regards,
Ian.
