+ <title>Install <command>aboot</command> on a Hard Disk</title>
+<para>
+
+If you have booted from SRM, if you select this option, the installer
+will write <command>aboot</command> to the first sector of the disk on
+which you installed Debian. Be <emphasis>very</emphasis> careful &mdash; it
+is <emphasis>not</emphasis> possible to boot multiple operating
+systems (e.g. GNU/Linux, Free/Open/NetBSD, OSF/1 a.k.a. Digital Unix
+a.k.a. Tru64 Unix, or OpenVMS) from the same disk. If you also have a
+different operating system installed on the disk where you have
+installed Debian, you will have to boot GNU/Linux from a floppy
+instead.
