Need a new MBR! Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG So I got FreeBSD installed on my shiny new system, then installed BeOS. I read the docs on the "experimental" BeOS loaded, BeLO, which is based on LiLO. It says it'll recognize other bootable partitions, which it did, asking me to name my FreeBSD parition. Did that, reboot, get screens full of zeros. Oh hell. So I can boot BeOS off the boot floppy, and FreeBSD off a floppy or CD-ROM, but I cannot boot *anything* from my hard drive. Is there anyway to reinstall BootEasy *without* creating a DOS boot floppy first? Can I get this from some menu in sysinstall? I poked through the menus and didn't see anything that obviously related to "Just reinstall BootEasy, I hosed my MBR." Please respond via email. Thanks in advance. -- "Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?"
