That's what I thought the install process on the new drive was doing. It appears it didn't.
It does what it is told. If you go to bootloader installation details, you will see various checkmarks (MBR, /boot, root etc). Yast will install bootloader boot code in every checked location. The one thing that may be confusing - MBR means "MBR of the very first drive" and you need to double check drive order and which drive is considered the first. I always prefer to uncheck everything and explicitly select disk where I want bootloader to be installed (on the same screen).
I went back to this and checked and re-checked. I even removed the 'old' drive from the list so that the new drive was not only 'first' but was the ONLY one listed. I also made sure that the new drive was the one on the main screen. I'm not sure about your 'uncheck everything'. If you do that where does the bootloader go? -- Expecting life to treat your fairly because you are a good person is like expecting an angry bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian. -- Shari R Barr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
