Yep. New mbr available as of 3/20/2005. Thanks!
No metadata.xml, this package needs a maintainer.
FYI: Just bumped the version number on the ebuild and placed in my overlay. mbr 1.1.18 works, and now it has made my usb key bootable. Yay, yay, joy joy!
Chris, seems to work, will you bump this one?
Fixed in cvs.
