 Is there a way I can just update that MBR thingie since I think that
 that is where the problem is? If I can do that, then I can check to see
 if the problem is fixed.
 
 At a guess, if I pull in just the boot.flp floppy and play with its
 partitioning stuff then I should be able to test things.  Sound correct?
