I'm very grateful ;)

I have a mixed IDE/SATA system, so I had to do a new installation of 10.3 onto 
the IDE disk. The SATA disk is currently unavailable, but I can live with 
that for the time being, until the patch is officially released. Like you, I 
also don't know what to do with the patch attached to the last post in 
bugzilla, and assume something will be made available via Yast.

You could start a 10.3 installation and see how far it gets on your system. If 
it recognises your SATA drives, all well and good, if doesn't nothing is 
lost. Nothing gets committed until you say yes to reformatting partitions 
(but remember to leave /home alone)
