If you have a floppy drive and a dos/windows rescue disk you can run "fdisk /mbr". But I agree that it probably shouldn't write to the mbr without asking first. I have had some trouble with grub writing a valid mbr to disk on my p4, not during d-i but on a regular basis. The next time I am in front of my desktop I will test it again, if it still doesn't work I should probably file a bug. Chris
