I think that you might be interested in my MBR- I use a program called
OS-BS (http://www.prz.tu-berlin.de/~wolf/os-bs.html) to dual-boot Linux
& Windows. LILO's on its partition's boot sector, while this sits in
the MBR. This is his old version (2.0 Beta 8) which is freeware; I
haven't picked up the new because it's commercial, and I don't want to
pay for it when this works perfectly well.
I can also send you an MBR from a different boot loader (which wants a
small primary partition dedicated to it!) taken from Ranish's Partition
Manager (http://www.users.intercom.com/~ranish/part/).
Is this what you're looking for?
