Hi

I am trying to remove a bootloader accidentally installed on ad0s3.
I tried overwriting it with fdisk -B -b /boot/boot0 -3 but that didn't
have any effect. And anyway, I'd rather see it gone than
replaced with the FreeBSD bootloader.
boot0cfg doesn't seem to be able to act on slices alone. That leaves
dd, but as I am not sure how to do it correctly, I thought I'd rather
ask first.

thanks, t.
