Hi all,

I recently used sysinstall to partition and label a new scsi drive.

/dev/da0s1

b (swap)
d    /
e    /usr
f    /var
g    /home


I then 'restored' 4 filesystems to it:

/
/usr
/var
/home

Somehow, the disk is not bootable. I get a 'BTX HAlted" when I try to =
boot it.

IS there a way to check the mbr nad fix it if necessary?

Currently, I have a boot drive as the primary, and the one mentioned =
above as a second drive on the machine. The first drive is a ATA and the =
second (broken) is a SCSI.
