I took the disk out of a different machine and put it in my home machine that runs Linux. I set up LILO to boot BSD, but yet when I try to boot the disk I get the message 'no bootable partition'. Yet if I put the BSD boot diskette in, I can boot just fine. Any ideas how I can make the disk bootable again. I tried disklabel -B wd0 to no avail... TIA
