select "higher release number" root (mga first of course)
We were just picking the first found mga system (so it depended on the partitions order). For the record, in the old days, before favouring mga roots over mdv ones, we were taking the last one. In both cases, it's arbitrary but still OK for most people who don't have several mga releases (physically) installed on the same machine. We would need to interact with the user when there're more than one root and ask him to choose. (In MGA _3_) In the mean time, this patch makes it select the mga root with the higher release number (if none, ditto for mdv roots).
