Hi All, I have a dual boot, Win98 SuSE 6.0, Dell. I don't use LILO, I start Linux from a boot floppy. I have a single Win partition and 3 Linux partitions. My win98 disk utilities say that there is a problem with my MBR and they want to re-write the MBR. I'm inclined to use dos' fdisk /MBR and rewrite the MBR myself but.... on page 93 of my SuSE manual it says "These commands only write the first 446 bytes (the boot code) into the MBR and leave the partitions untouched." The footnote notes however that....... "This is provided that the MBR has valid code. If not, it is considered invalid and the partition table is moved to "null."" Could someone please explain this to me? and How can I make a copy of the partition table in case I toast it while trying to fix the MBR (fips???)?
