WTF are you on about? You complain that GRUB2 can't install to a |
| 10 |
partition, and call such restrictions Microsoft-like. I point out that |
| 11 |
openSUSE does indeed install GRUB2 to a partition, just ike you want, and |
| 12 |
now you call them Microsoft-like? |

So in your view, installing to the MBR is dictatorial like Microsoft |
| 15 |
while installing to a partition like you say you want is also Microsoft |
| 16 |
like? I think you should take Alan's advice. |
