In order to get rid of BM, you need to use a BM rescue floppy or BM installed
on a windows partition. You will break things if you try fdisk /mbr from a
dos/win boot floppy and if you try to overwrite it with either grub or lilo.
Personally, I wish that Caldera hadn't offered it, but it was a stop-gap
method when lilo had the 1024 cyl barrier. I don't know why they had it on
eD2.4 since grub was offered and installed by default when one used Lizard to
install. Is BM and/or PM offered with eW3.1 box set? If so, we'll keep
getting questions and problems with people using it. I think Caldera was the
only distro that offered this.
