On the subject of booting, I don't suppose you know how to get rid of

I've found boot0cfg which seems as though it 'installs' that, but I
can't see anything about actually removing it?
Boot from a DOS bootdisk and run "fdisk /mbr" to clear that out.
There's a way to do it using the BSD fdisk and boot0cfg, but I don't 
recall how off the top of my head.  It's in the man pages for those 
two, though.
I have two different answers! Matt says I can't really get rid of it, 
but can install someone elses, and that I should just reduce the 
timeout if it's too long.
Here comes the third:

boot0cfg -B -b /boot/mbr

we already carry a simple mbr (in comparison to the boot manager boot0) 
which can be installed.
