Message-ID: <1993Dec2.081626.1@vaxb.acs.unt.edu> Lines: 11 Sender: usenet@news.unt.edu (UNT USENet Adminstrator) Organization: University of North Texas Date: Thu, 2 Dec 1993 14:16:26 GMT I remember reading somewhere that you could run something like fdisk /mbr and then reformat a disk so that DOS could be reinstalled. I have decided to remove NetBSD from a pc I have and I cannot seem to get this command to work. I looked through the install notes and can't seem to find any referance to this /mbr command. What is the proper command to run fdisk with to restore the master boot record? (i.e. remove a NetBSD partition type so a DOS type can be defined). Please email if you know.
