*** IMPORTANT ***

I've noticed that the workaround in comment #1 give and incorrect set of options for using dd to write to the disk. Please DO NOT use that command as it will try to truncate the output.

It should read:

4. Write the nops into the boot sector (replace /dev/sda if necessary with the boot device name on *your* system):

 sudo dd if=/tmp/nop.bin of=/dev/sda conv=notrunc bs=2 count=1 seek=102
