Summary0004404: MS-SYS - Program for writing Microsoft compatible boot records
Description

This program is used to create Microsoft compatible boot records. It is able
to do the same as Microsoft "fdisk /mbr" to a hard disk. It is also able to
do the same as Microsoft "sys d:" to a floppy or FAT partition except that
it does not copy any system files, only the boot record is written.

The program is useful when using Linux to restore a backup of a reference
Microsoft Windows installation.

Steps To Reproduce

git clone https://github.com/pbatard/ms-sys.git

cd ms-sys

make && make install

ms-sys -h

This builds, installs, and runs well in Kali. We don't have anything similar so it would make a good addition to the Forensics category.
