Does the linux fdisk have any way of doing a dos fdisk /MBR? Does linux
fdisk create an MBR by default on a newly installed system, or do you have
to use dos fdisk, then linux fdisk? I still can't get lilo to update my MBR
and boot w/o a floppy. I've done everything right, but it doesn't work.
I'm using lilo v19 with redhat 4.0, I think lilo 19 might be the prob, as
I never had this prob with lilo 17, which I no longer have.
