>Environment:
install cd build from source updated June 7th, 2001
Dell PowerEdge 1300  (formerly running Redhat)

>Description:
When installing (using sysinst) on these Dells, they won't boot when
sysinst is done, saying invalid partition table.  fdisk shows the
NetBSD partition is active (I'm using the whole disk).

>How-To-Repeat:
Install on a fresh (lilo'd) disk from Dell.
>Fix:
I have to install the boot selector menu, I haven't come up with another
way to make them boot.  I just tell it NetBSD, and set the timeout to 1.
