+====== Installation Troubleshooting ======
+===== Using two disks =====
+If your computer has two hard disks on the IDE controller
+and you are installing MINIX 3 to the second one, sometimes
+there can be a problem booting. This problem occurs if the
+second disk does not have a correct boot program in the MBR
+(Master Boot Record). To solve this problem, boot MINIX 3 from
+the CD-ROM, log in as root, and type:
+<code>
+installboot -m /dev/c0d1 /usr/mdec/masterboot
+</code>
+This command will install a proper MBR on drive 1 and you
+should not have any more problems. You may have to reinstall
+MINIX 3 however.
