HiThank's for the reply. In fdisk I just said A and then S to set bootable before W to write it out. I did change /etc/fstab to da1s1a and da1s1d. When I do fdisk after mounting it it says device /mnt/boot/mbr is not character special. Info from dos bootblock; data for partition 1,2,3,4 is unused. I'll try putting small dos partition first.
