    Hello gent's, first on the ide cable 3 peaces one mother board 2 or middle one is slave 3 is the one on the end is the master, next on the hard drive there are 2 way of setting a master drive, 1 is a single drive 2 is a master with a slave, so look at the setting on the drive and all drive have different jumper settings for different manufactures, what was a bought the MDR is true, but bios must be set right and up dated, next on he issue single drive for SUSE 10. you do need at 5 GB. Of space why updates, and as far not being able to log on it XP crashes and just recover with SUSE CD\DVD you can recover and repair , also there are repair tools recovery MDR, some times you can erase partition from view here is a free tool http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ that can help recover that drive it is just hidden from view, with this just enable view of the drive, windows has a nasty habit of hiding the drive when something or so me other OS is installed and it is not finish the installation. And as far SUSE comes from version 9 up it is the best for looks clear way of installation and all the yast or more well known yet another system tool this OS is the real Plug&play, just enable all peripherals from before installation and lat he OS YAST do the rest,well enjoy
