pfft, most people move to SuSE because of Yast! It supports the same hardware Ubuntu does, just it doesn't come packed with the drivers you might need. It offers grub and lilo for boot loaders out of the box, Ubuntu offers grub also, so it was obviously a configuration error, not SuSE's fault. I'm not here to rage a distro war, but I have openSuSE running fine, on pretty new hardware, and triple-booting.
