I think Smart Boot Mamager has an option to make a copy of the original MBR before it installs over it, as well as to restore the original from the backup file.Originally Posted by adamherb
Is there a program that lets you back up the mbr, onto a floppy, or cd so that you can restore it if needed. How do you backup, or restore it using that program?

With a formatted floppy in the drive:
sudo dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/fd0/bootsect.bin bs=512 count=1
(You can name it whatever you want to.)
Same thing in reverse to restore it:
sudo dd if=/dev/fd0/bootsect.bin of=/dev/hda bs=512 count=1
