The command: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/da0 does not delete the mbr, I still see the partition table with fdisk. My questions: (1) What does this command do? (2) How to delete the mbr with dd? How to address the whole disk with dd? In OpenBSD is simply dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rsd0c with perhaps a count argument. Rod.
