Hi Karsten

Please try at least RC1 or an actual snapshot!
There are a lot of improvements in this area.

Grub and lilo will now try to detect all OS's on your HD automatically.
So you could try it in mbr again replacing Bootstar.

But I think you wanted to install it to partition 10 not partition 1 in the first place?

Sorry, don't know your Bootstar boot manager.
