...there is no argument that anything to do with booting and configuring Grub is complex, but... I still have yet to see a single answer to this problem that takes into account the fact that openSUSE did somehow manage do set up Grub with multiple boot partitions in the past, and that other Linux Distros still seem to be able to manage it right now...
Then you must have missed http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse/2010-06/msg00185.html
To elaborate, Grub 2 GA is still not released. Last I checked it was still betaware at v1.98, which occurred subsequent to 11.2 release. Novell apparently decided its released to date installation program versions needed not support it.
I saw that. I'm beginning to think we're on totally different wavelengths here. I am not arguing about Grub2, nor am I at this point, pointing at distros with Grub2. The subject of this thread happens when you install openSUSE 11.2 on a system with 11.1, 11.0, Ubuntu 9.04, etc etc. There is no Grub2 involved there is there? I had 5 different distros installed at the time of 11.2RC1 and RC2. When I installed 11.2, I "lost" all my other menu choices in Grub. Something that never happened with previous releases. I could only chose 11.2 from the Grub menu. I had no distros installed that were using Grub2. openSUSE 11.2 does not use Grub2 by default.... so my comment still seems quite valid to me... and your valid point about Grub2 has no bearing on the issue that I can see... or does it? If it does, how since Grub2 is not a part of the proverbial equation at this point. I think we're discussing the apples and oranges thing.
