That's my problem too ...

If I want a multiboot system, with just ONE bootloader, eg grub, I do 
NOT want a distro install mechanism messing about with the other 
distros. ESPECIALLY if (I'm looking at you, SUSE) you mess it up so YOU 
can't boot, and neither can anything else!

(And no,I don't expect gentoo to get it right, either.)
