Following an installation, from CD, where I selected the option to update the
MBR, the computer won't boot and displays an Operating System Not Found
message.
fdisk -v sd0 shows:
0: NetBSD (sysid 169)
start 12, size 71687360 (35004 MB, Cyls 0/1/5-746743/5/4), Active
beg: cylinder 0, head 1, sector 1
end: cylinder 1023, head 11, sector 8
PBR is not bootable: Bad magic number (0x0000)>
Running :
installboot -v /dev/rsd0d /boot/bootxx_ffsv1
The computer was running NetBSD prior to the re-installation.
Suggestions?
