Public bug reported:
I use two proprietary softwares which have treated me very reliably and
invaluably for years. They are both by the same shareware author. One
is Bootit NG, boot manager, partition manager, etc. The other is Image
for Linux 2.
Grub2 in overwriting the main MBR overwrote Bootit NG which resides
there and is a boot-loader, also responsible for partition-swapping. I
installed alpha 2 to the mbr on the /boot partition, and feel it should
have not been changed as it was. Other bootloaders and mbr utilities
must be affected. However, grub2 is very good.
Image for Linux runs inside a Linux distribution as in my case Ubuntu,
for imaging partitions in case of a need to restore. I have discovered
today that it seems not to be allowed to execute the executable
'imagel'. Upon running in terminal it is immediately killed. Logs from
the syslog and auth.log pertaining to this are attached. I am not sure
what they mean, I see a reference to apparmor. Possibly mis-
understanding something in IFL.
The author of these softwares has been notified with the same info.
Thanks
