After discussion on the ubuntu-fr forum (http://forum.ubuntu- fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=3715670), it seems that the first 404 bytes of the original MBR are automatically saved in /usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin .
Can someone confirm ? (If yes, the MBR can be restored (without the partition table) by the following command : sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=/home/$USER/mbr_linux.bin bs=404 count=1 -- Need automatic MBR backup before installation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/633064 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
