Indeed the PowerMac has a NVidia card. It worked OK in previous
openSuse's (10.3,11.0).
The boot option was refused - msg was a "file not found" condition.
That could be a Catch22 because the file system is still corrupt
after the last forceful stop.

I'll wait now for the official 11.1 release and start from scratch.
I don't I contributed much to the testing of RC1.
