My laptop has both openSUSE 12.2 and Slackware 14 on separate partitions. Slackware updates recently left me unable to boot into Slackware without installing lilo to the MBR. I did this, checked Slackware was OK. Now I have lilo on the MBR. I try to load openSuSE and get to my log in page where the screen freezes leaving me unable to typ in my password and login. So - I want to restore Grub2 from openSuSE to the MBR. I have booted up Slackware, done chroot to get into openSuSE and have tried "grub2-install /dev/sda". I get the follwing error
Path `/boot/grub2' is not readable by GRUB on boot.

I've tried searching for answers to this and tried various approaches, nothing seems to work. What am I doing wrong?
