The install program failed to install any bootstrap code to the disk, so my boot manager does not find any operating system. I know I could install bootstrap code by using disklabel -B -w disk label but the install program doesnt give a label for the disk in the disktab. Is there another way to install bootstrap code to the disk? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ric Flinn http://friley10.res.iastate.edu/~rmf rmf@iastate.edu If we had ham, we could make ham & eggs.
