But this is realy unusually to have such a basic thing in a hidden window tab. And for me, as i did a Update Installation, there was no extra "EXPERT" tab shown up.
Do you realy think that changing the bootloader configuration is basic task ?
To be honest, I'm changing the GRUB configuration after installation as well, but I don't do it during the installation itself.
IMHO that is an EXPERT task. Therefore it is right under the EXPERT tab.
10.0rc1 at this time is for experts but will be released to the public soon (less than 4 weeks from now ...) and then hidding EXPERT taks under the EXPERT tab seems to be vital. Otherwise non-EXPERTS might be confused by too many options ...

Why i want to update ? I wanted to update the Beta4 to RC1, and next i possibly want to update my SuSE 9.1 to SuSe 10 ... But this is not the Point, if you want to update you want control by your bootloader, that´s it.
Again, you might want to do that, but I expect you not to be a non-EXPERT. Do you realy think a beginner wants to change a working configuration ?
Well, probably you are right. The easyest way is, to install the bootloader into the mbr of the hda and integrate an existing Windows Installation. For those how make there first Installation this might be o.k But if you have another Linux Installation and you want to keep the bootloader as it is, someone should tell you about the Expert Tab. I have just overlooked this Tab, and thought i would be asked later, but i was´nt. This was happen at the first time i installed Beta4 as a New Installation. And so i did not wonder that there was no way to konfigurer the bootloader as i updated from Beta4 to RC1. So all in all, the Bootloader Configuration was a little bit tricky to me,because i expect the way it was before. But at least, OSS 10 works smother now then 9.3 ever did ... So thanks to all for a job well done ;-) Micha
