<div>About a week ago, a maintenance update for 'grub2' came thru (for the 'sid' repository).</div><div><br></div><div>It runs a 'pre-install' script, which displays 2 different options, either or both of which the operator/owner</div>
<div>could select (or not select). The wording of one entry (for the named partition, eg. sda5) was clear and</div><div>I selected. The other one was NOT clear...was phrased similar to "...'sda (Fujitsu), etc'.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Long story short, I selected both, but later learned of my error...what it DID was to rewrite the MBR for disk 'sda',</div><div>which is NOT what I wanted!</div><div><br></div><div>I'm requesting that the additional phrase 're-write MBR' or even just 'MBR' be made part of that option-question,</div>
<div>since that is what the industry calls it!</div><div><br></div><div>[It WOULD have been clear to me what that option was asking if it had only contained 'MBR', so please</div><div>rectify this, for future upgrades.</div>
<div><br></div><div>TIA...</div><div><br></div><div>[a 'burned' user (who DID undo the damage the next day, after learning how/where to get a Win-7 'repair DVD', etc)]</div><div><br></div><br clear="all">Dave<br>
