Hi folks
What am I missing? It must be something obvious?
I have two hard drives in my machine at home 1 has openSUSE the other
ArchLinux (The distro's are irrelevant really) both hard drives have
grub installed to their respective MBR's when I power on, the systems
wants/will boot openSUSE every time and does not get upset by the
ArchLinux.
If I stick 'smart boot manager' (Floppy) in and scan the partitions
(Ctrl+i) it sees and will boot Arch or SUSE which ever I choose to
their respective Grub boot loaders.
I tried the openSUSE bootloader wizard thingy-ma-jig but that refused
to detect the Arch
Is it something simple like the MBR on the Arch disk needs nukeing?
Its not a life or death problem just need the old grey matter jogging.
Thoughts, comments, bricks and bottles by return :-)

Arch Linux is an independent i686-optimized community distribution for
intermediate and advanced Linux users. Utilising a Rolling Release
System packages are regularly updated and an ISO release is just a
snapshot to the stable packages at that time. So there's no need for a
fresh install the command 'pacman –Syu' upgrades the whole system.
