MBR failure
I have installed iPC off the iPC Live 10.5.6.
I have tried to fix my MBR about 5 times without success. It werks, but only after I boot off the DVD and type rd=disk1s1. I just added OS X to my Vista boot manager, but that just locks up the system. What do I do?

I used iPC Live, ver 10.5.6 which has a GUI install.
The command I use to fix it is: fdisk -e /dev/rdisk1 (I'm wondering if this is where the problem is) update f 1 w q When I booted to fix it, its off the DVD, the BIOS has it as rdisk1, but if I go to BIOS and select it to boot, woudn't it become rdisk0? 💡 Deploy cloud instances seamlessly on DigitalOcean.
