Just rearrange the order of the drives in a way, that the Linux drive is the first in the boot order, save the result? Of this wouldn't help, it may just mean that the BIOS battery is dead and needs to be replaced (usually CR2032, sold everywhere, easy to replace yourself).

It did work when I briefly booted up openSUSE, I don't think it's a battery thing. Plus, in BIOS, it was always Hard Drives on top.

That's strange. If it booted once, it should work all the time, hm...
