I installed Ubuntu side of my suse for testing, now Ubuntu has created its own Grub in boot. How do i restore openSUSEs grub? I tryed to install it again via Yast, rewrited mbr etc, still Ubuntu grub stays.
In suse install dvd had repair option before, there was tools to fix grub. That option is gone from 11.4, why?
The easiest thing to do is to type the following in Ubuntu:
sudo update-grub
It will add an entry to boot openSUSE in Ubuntu’s Grub menu. Then you can boot openSUSE and install its Grub (or not) if you like, either in MBR (which would replace Ubuntu’s Grub in this case) or in its root partition.

GNU GRUB version 0.97 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)
Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
completions of a device/filename. ]
