Created an attachment (id=382967)
--> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=382967)
y2logs from fresh 11.3 installation
Unless I'm misremembering (different machine from previous comments;
installation target: sda7; no separate /boot):
1-I clicked disable boot from MBR
2-I clicked enable boot from /
3-I deselected boot from extended partition and boot from MBR
4-I selected boot from / partition
5-I left selected set active flag ... (due to bug 618286, while logical action
would have been to deselect it, since the correct location already had the
flag)
6-I deselected write generic MBR code (because that is what was already there,
which I wanted 100% untouched by installation, and also due to bug 618286)
Luckily, I was able to notice in time when the too short countdown to reboot
timer engaged, clicked no, switched to tty, did fdisk -l, and discovered the
active flag had been moved from where I put it (first primary) to the extended
partition (not acceptable).
