My first comments on the newly-uploaded boot floppies are:
  - disabling the prompt solves the problem as reported;
  - the new user information message is appropriate;
  - if some users want to have the ability to have an "enabled"
    mbr, perhaps this could be proposed as an option in the
    installation procedure, eg:
    "<information message about the MBR>
     --> Do you want to enable MBR's prompting features? (y/n)"
