+-- Guus Bekkema [freebsd] [14-06-03 12:46 +0200]:
| I wanted a small 486 pc working on freeBSD
| 
| I got the setup program working but the media I used was not recognized. Now I wanted to go back to just reinstalling win 98 but for some reason I got the freeBSD masterbootrecordloader or something like that
| 
| It came down to the fact that the system says it has nog kernel nor any bootloader and he ends with:
| 
| boot?:
| 
| or something like that
| 
| How can I get the bootloader off my system and get it working again with Micro(shit)soft
| 
| Many thanks,
|

	A:\> fdisk /mbr
