mbr = Master Boot Record, that's what you have at the beginning of your drive(s)
to be able to automagically select the good language (or at least have a good
idea of it), it want to analyse the microsoft mbr which is i18ned (yes, it is!)
for example, in the french version of windows, you have ``Erreur de
chargement''. That's a bit crude and simple, but that can help...
so in case you (still!) have a microsoft mbr (aka you've done some kind of fdisk
/mbr not long ago) do:
% dd if=/dev/hda of=/tmp/mbr bs=512 count=1
then mail me /tmp/mbr
of course, if you another drive than hda, replace hda by that drive (sda...)
thanks, cu Pixel.
PS: don't ask me to scan fat partitions for register database or else. This i'm
still not prepared to do :pp
