How to copy the bootloader?
Just did a :

root at foobar /usr #mkdir /mnt/boot
root at foobar /usr # /usr/mdec/installboot  -v /mnt/boot 
/usr/mdec/biosboot sd0
boot: /mnt/boot
proto: /usr/mdec/biosboot
device: /dev/rsd0c
/usr/mdec/biosboot: entry point 0
proto bootblock size 512
/mnt/boot is 1 blocks x 16384 bytes
fs block shift 2; part offset 32; inode block 165416, offset 552
using MBR partition 3: type 166 (0xa6) offset 32 (0x20)



Still isn't working.
