Description Marco Descher 2005-09-14 12:08:47 UTC 
e.g.:
  <bootloader>
   <global config:type="list">
    <global_entry>
     <key>prompt</key>
     <value config:type="boolean">false</value>
    </global_entry>
   </global>
   <loader_type>grub</loader_type>
   <location>boot</location>
   <sections config:type="list"/>
  </bootloader>

opensuse 10.0 RC1 does ignore the location flag and sets the location for the
bootloader to MBR despite option "boot". Using SuSe Professional 9.3 Yast shows
the correct location.

Ladislav, I don't know how good you know the Bootloader.
Maybe we have to wait for Jiří.
Comment 2 Ladislav Slezák 2005-09-14 12:47:53 UTC 
We should wait for Jiri, I don't know the code well and I don't want to break
something in this development stage.
Comment 3 Jiri Srain 2005-09-27 08:14:56 UTC 
This option was not exported at all. FIxed in SVN for 10.1.
