Yep, it sure does. I tried to repost my info, but that bug report got closed
too.
I have a "work around" (or two) of sorts, but it's not pretty.
Do a base install, absolute base using the GM (non-retail) 11.0, use it's
default, I believe ext3/grub.
Note, if you used LILO before or are upgrading, or even reinstalling overtop
(with format) of a system that had LILO, you're going to run into problems!
There's only one way around that I've found, in the bootloader config, under
grub, choose "boot", "root" AND "mbr", this will force it to rewrite all three
sections and finally work properly.
once installed, go into the bootloader, change to LILO, and use "propose", make
sure all three parts are chosen, again.
or, alternatively, during the install setup of bootloader, choose grub, select
all three, THEN switch to LILO, use "propse", and it *should* keep the three
parts (root/boot/mbr).
you can use reiserfs or ext3 with this method.
I've confirmed these methods work on all the systems I've tried. it's not
pretty though.
