I have looked on the NetBSD web page, and I have not seen anything related
to removing lilo from the MBR when moving to a strictly BSD box. Right now
I have tried booting from the boot floppy and then issuing the following
commands:

fdisk -i -c /mnt/mdec/mbr_bootsel /dev/rsd0a
fdisk -B /dev/rsd0a

That tells me that the bootselector has been installed, but lilo still
insists on controlling what is going to boot the machine... ugh!

Can someone please tell me how to either rip out lilo or install the bootsel?
Remember tho that I have to do this from the install floppy... since lilo will
not let me into the machine.

thanks,
phil
