+No. Mageia 2's Grub boot-loader was installed to the MBR of the boot disk.

+This is the stanza in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg for Mageia 2:

+
+
+I've attached grub.cfg, in case it's of some help.
+
+os-prober creates a boot menu which lists the first entry from Grub's
+menu.lst on the top-level Grub2 boot menu, even when the first entry in
+menu.lst is not the default. As a result, in order to reach the menu
+entry for Mageia 2, I have to access the second level &quot;Advanced options&quot;
+menu.
+
+On this system /dev/sdb is the boot disk.
