Over the network, for example. FTP it or send the file via email. You could also write the file to any other media (floppy disk or CompactFlash card) which has a filesystem understood by both OSes (msdos FS, for example). Read `man mount_msdos' for more info. In the end, it's only 512 bytes! Do $ hexdump /boot/boot0 and write it down from the screen :-) I hope this helps. -- Alexander Pohoyda
