Hi Georgi,
I thibk you should have a look at the boot0cfg(8) utility, and especialy
the following three options:
-b boot0
Specify which `boot0' image to use. The default is /boot/boot0.
-f file
Specify that a backup copy of the preexisting MBR should be
writ-
ten to file. This file is created if it does not exist, and
replaced if it does.
(I surpose this backup file is /boot/mbr, so you can put it back)
-s slice
Set the default boot selection to slice.
(This one may help you preselect the partition you want to boot)
Yours,
Georgi Moskov.
