+<PRE>2012/5/3 blind Pete &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-discuss">0123peter at gmail.com</A>&gt;:
+&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> But at which moment/occasion would you need that?
+</I>&gt;<i> When do you use the installer?
+</I>&gt;<i> Incompetent user: every month.
+</I>&gt;<i> Tester: every week.
+</I>&gt;<i> Mageia user: every nine months.
+</I>
+No, I meant: at which moment in the install process and for which occasion?
+
+&gt;&gt;<i> Only once when
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> you install the distribution which you think will stay the longest and
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> whos bootloader will go into MBR. After that you don't need it any
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> more because you will have to add new distributions manually to the
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> list.
+</I>&gt;<i> You can use drakboot as it is now to add &quot;things to be chainloaded&quot;
+</I>&gt;<i> to the list.
+</I>
+But that makes only sense for the bootloader which is in the MBR. So
+you do it once and never again.
+Whenever you add a distribution, you put the bootloader of this new
+one in its root partition. Then you boot the distribution which has
+its bootloader in the MBR and add the relevant 3 lines into its
+menu.lst. You can't use drakboot for that.
