Suse uses a different boot loader (at least it did when I used it a couple years ago). It should have detected Ubuntu and set up the boot loader to boot either Ubuntu or suse. If it didn't that is probably a suse problem. I can't help with that.

You can, of course, reinstall grub. It should detect suse also and set that up. If not, you can edit the /boot/grub/menu.lst file to add an entry for suse.

I wrote some directions to reinstall grub here:

A more comprehensive set of instructions can be found here:

It says windows but should work for reinstalling grub for any reason.

Can you help with this problem?
