Hi,
I want to change some items in the bootstrap
code most importantly the delay time for automatic
bootup. I duly went to /sys/i386/boot/biosboot
and modified the Makefile to change 5000 to 15000
did:
make clean
make all
make install
thwn I tried to update the bootdtrap code
with:
disklabel -B sd0
and promptly got a warning that
Warning, revolutions/minute 0
super block size 0
and the bootstrap code remains unchanged.
Any ideaas ???
thanks, Jon
