What's the easiest way to install an earlier suse version on a spare partition
and still keep the latest grub that comes with 10.2 (along with an intact
10.2 partition)?

After trying a bunch of things on my problem of accessing a physical xp
installation from my vmware server inside my 10.3 install, the final
conclusion is that it can not be done. Suse 10.3 presents my hda1partition as
sda1 to vmware and thus to all the virtual machines i can set up thru vmware,
