------- Comment #7 from kkeil@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-10-25 04:09 MST -------
The reason for overwriting the MBR is inside YaST, it write a /etc/grub.conf
containing 2 setup lines, one for the selected boot partion one for the MBR
e.g.
setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd1,8) (hd1,8)
setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd0) (hd1,8)
quit

This is not the only bug in YAST2 grub handling, ut also does not write
the menu.conf correctely, the first lines with
default 0
timeout 8
gfxmenu (hd1,8)/boot/message

are missing.
