[3.3] xfdisk 0.93beta 'remember choice' not working

Hi,

perhaps some already know that xfdisk 0.93beta has a bug. The "remember choice" option in the boot manager is not working.

It works in 0.92beta, so perhaps for UBCD 3.4 0.92beta can be also included or even replace 0.93beta.

If code of 0.92beta is missing, drop a note, I can supply the zip package.

For this particular issue, I think the bug is small enough that including both 0.9.2 and 0.9.3 will be counterproductive. Replacing 0.9.3 with 0.9.2 is also not an option, since 0.9.3 does add a significant improvement according to the version history that some users may need:

reduced Boot Manager size and moved to end of first head (n sectores/head -> CHS 0/0/n-13 upto 0/0/n). This should solve the problem with HighPoint/Abit IDE adapter cards

If you feel strongly enough about this bug, do contact the author and let him know how you feel. I am sure he will nail it in 0.9.4.

Unfortunately, I don't believe so because developers are no longer maintain the software (since some years now).
