So I `dd if=mb-0.3.bin of=/dev/hdd6 bs=1024 count=150` and hope
it works. Now there are 2 questions:
It will be easier if you change fdisk's units to sectors, so it prints
the start of the partition for you. I get this from my set up:
Command (m for help): u
Changing display/entry units to sectors
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 155061 cylinders, total 156301488 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

So (I think, if there are no gotchas - it's a while since I played with
this stuff) the YAMON command would be:
YAMON> disk read hda 1ec18a0 ff 800d0000; go 800d0000
where 1ec18a0 is (32250015 + 1) in hex.
(1) where to put mb.conf?
As it stands the bootloader will look in /dev/hda2 if you are running BE
and /dev/hda3 if LE. For now just try getting MIPSboot to start :)
