There's also this, maybe available from booting openSUSE installation media in rescue mode: # /usr/sbin/fixmbr --help /usr/sbin/fixmbr: invalid option -- '-' usage: /usr/sbin/fixmbr [-s] [-i <mbr-file>] <device> write 440 bytes to <device> from /usr/lib/boot/master-boot-code or use code supplied in <mbr-file>. -s will generate a new random signature for the MBR.

Yep. What happens if there are two is undefined, but typically the first one boots. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
