Description Volker Kuhlmann 2007-03-31 08:42:47 UTC

The yast boot loader module forgets the setting of loader location when entering the edit mode for the 3 grub files (devices.map, grub.conf, menu.lst). Making absolutely no changes and returning by clicking "ok" changes the boot loader location to custom. Going "back" instead of "ok" doesn't show this problem here, but when making changes to one of these files not related to loader location, at least one unintentional change would be made too.

Comment 6 Jozef Uhliarik 2008-07-27 18:20:29 UTC

I am sorry th problem is that "Back" button means same like "Cancel". The bug is that Back button should be disabled.

The bug is duplicate of bug #270459. There is better description what is necessary to do.
