Re: Removing bootstrap data on i386

Its simpler than this

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rwd0d bs=512 count=1

if you want to test it, 

dd if=/dev/zero of=/tmp/file bs=512 count=1


and this is inherently dangerous, but not uncommon. Forinstance, if you 
want to convert standard disk part into GPT, you can expect to have to do 
this.
