You should backup your boot/mbr sector first to a blank floppy with
following command:
dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=1
because if after installing freedos on that dos partition lilo or grub
dont come up next boot than you can restore it with dd if=/dev/fd0
of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1

Hopefully this might help out ?

Well, the MBR is special program located at sector 1 head 0, cylinder 0
with datastructure for partition information. The code for detecting
active Partition is 446 bytes long and then follow the partition table
entries (4 of them):
bootabledb ? ; Indicate active partition slice

Has anyone thought of breaking the freedos.iso image into zip archives
and allowing users to download it in peices? would be better than
messing around with cdrom image files of megabyte proportion?
