Erm... You should _not_ mount (as in /sbin/mount) the CF
in order to change MBR data; mounting should be restricted
to its humano-mechanical part. :-)

You can use sysinstall for that: Configure, select the CF card
to work on, don't chance anything with the slices in the fdisk
editor, just make sure the slice is marked active, and in the
next step, select the default MBR to be written.
The command line way should be:
# fdisk -BI /dev/da0
# fdisk -B -b /boot/mbr /dev/da0
(Assumption: /dev/da0 is the CF card.)
Note that the first step will re-initialize the card. If you don't
want to build it from scratch, i. e. _only_ modify the MBR, the
second command should do it.
See "man fdisk" for details on the fdisk commands.
