Updated grub2 package fixes two issues

Publication date: 06 Aug 2014
Modification date: 06 Aug 2014
Type: bugfix
Affected Mageia releases : 4

Description

If grub2 was installed manually (not via drakboot) in Mga3 and installed
to MBR, then on upgrade to Mga4 the system would not boot.

If the grub2 package was installed in Mga3 but grub legacy was in use
(i.e. installed to MBR) then upgrade to Mga4 would cause the MBR
to be overwritten by grub2.
