They have special code in MBR because of the "Blue ThinkVantage button" functionality. The new way should be more reliable, however, it needs broader testing. If you have a ThinkPad, ensure that bootloader is not installed into MBR (displayed in the installation proposal) and MBR is not rewritten by generic code (in installation proposel select Bootloader -> Boot Loader Installation -> Boot Loader Options -> Write Generic Boot Code to MBR -- should be unchecked). If your MBR gets rewritten, the ThinkVantage button won't work any more. The back-up of MBR is stored in /var/lib/YaST2/backup_boot_sectors/ -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
