- Description:
- This program is used to create Microsoft compatible boot records. It is able
to do the same as Microsoft "fdisk /mbr" to a hard disk. It is also able to do
the same as Microsoft "sys d:" to a floppy or FAT partition except that it does
not copy any system files, only the boot record is written.
The program is useful when using Linux to restore a backup of a reference
Microsoft Windows installation.
