First, I'd check that you have the correct code in sector 0.
eg run 'hexdump -C -n512 /dev/rwd0d' the output should match that
of the installed file from /use/mdec/mbr*.
If it is wrong, 'fdisk -c mbr' should try to update it.

Some of the 'Not a system disk' error messages are actually output
by code on the disk itself.

If the bios is refusing to believe that the mbr is valid it gets a
bit harder....
