+
+I did answer your question:
+
+&quot;MB -- does the Mageia2 installation have GRUB-Legacy in the PBR?
+
+ JK -- No. Mageia 2's Grub boot-loader was installed to the MBR of
+ the boot disk.&quot;
+
+When I wrote &quot;No&quot;, I meant &quot;No&quot; :)
+
+To be absolutely clear, I have never placed any boot-loader in any PBR
+on this system.
