Assuming you understand how /boot/grub/menu.lst works, just copy any or all of the ones the installation CD uses from e.g. here http://mirrors.kernel.org/opensuse/distribution/SL-OSS-factory/inst-source/boot/i386/loader/isolinux.cfg and adjust as necessary according to where you actually put linux and initrd. If your motherboard doesn't require any special parameters, the 1st should be plenty, and even if it isn't, you can modify on the fly with grub anyway. -- "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped."
