Hi all,
In factory, yast2-bootloader and perl-Bootloader will be updated with grub2 support and will set as default for installation. However you can go back to your good old grub1 in the loader type selection menu if it doesn't work for you.
This will not affect your existing system if you performed update to newest factory, the current loader will remain grub1. But grub2 will be availale in yast2 bootloader and you could switch to use it if you like.
Will it be possible to install grub1 to the boot sector of one primary partition and grub2 to the boot sector of another primary partition? This traditional method using the "generic" boot code in the MBR to call whichever primary in the partition is marked active (bootable flag) would permit relatively easy switching between grub1 and grub2 (i.e., just changing the flag) and provide a fall-back from grub2 to grub1.
