Read the 4.0 man page for installboot.  The boot program that is place on
sector 1-whatever of your boot disk does have sector addresses for the
/boot program.  It is patched by the installboot program, which is not a
"dd" script as the 3.5 installboot program was.  In response to your later

it's name is now suninstall) is smart.
