After a zypper dup from 12.3 to 13.1rcN the boot failed, the code in MBR (most likely) loaded incorrect blocks, and the box crashed after jumping into the garbage. After that was fixed up, a few days later another zypper dup updated some packages which triggered the same boot failure. At that time I tried to analyze what happens in the various %post install scripts. The commands I found did not lead to the error for some reason, but maybe I just did not find all of them (or I ran them in wrong order). The very first failure after dup from 12.3 was fixed up by "grub2-install --force /dev/sda". This basically also helped with the second dup. Today I got the packages listed below from the 13.1 repos, and now the box once again fails to boot. I think something is not handling the MBR in GPT case correctly, thats why I opend this bug to track it down and fix it.
