Description Neal Gompa 2016-07-07 15:34:50 CEST 
Description of problem:
Mageia 6 is supposed to no longer offer GRUB Legacy and LILO for new installs. However, when running through the live install process, the option to select those older bootloaders was still available.

This needs to be removed, as GRUB 2 should be the only bootloader for new installs, as using the older bootloaders can lead to broken systems due to ext4 incompatibility with GRUB Legacy and LILO.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
draklive-install-2.7-1.mga6

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download Mageia 6 STA1 Live DVD
2. Run through the installation process
3. See that other options are available for the bootloader
