Correct. You might want to use: # fdisk -B -b /boot/mbr to make sure BootEasy is not installed instead of a plain MBR. Summing it all up in "steps", something like the following would be fine: 1. Make sure the correct partition is 'active'. # fdisk -u /dev/ad0 2. Install plain "MBR" boot code: # fdisk -B -b /boot/mbr 3.
