MS-Sys is a Linux tool used for creating boot records that are compatible with Microsoft. It is a program that helps Linux users to create bootable media for Windows OS.
If you're looking for a Linux program that can write Microsoft compatible boot records, then ms-sys might be just what you need. With this program, you can do the same thing that you would with Microsoft's "fdisk /mbr" command, except that only the boot record is written and no system files are copied.
In addition, ms-sys can also perform the same functions as Microsoft's "sys d:" command for floppy or FAT partitions, again without copying any system files. This makes it a handy tool for restoring backup files of Microsoft Windows installations when using Linux.
Installing ms-sys is straightforward, following these three steps: first, unpack the archive with "tar -xzvf ms-sys*.tgz"; second, compile using "cd ms-sys make"; and third, become root and install via "su (and give password) make install".
Overall, ms-sys is a useful and efficient program that can save you time and effort when working with Microsoft Windows installations on a Linux system. This latest release also includes makefile support for DESTDIR.
