Master boot record - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Not necessarily either of those. It's usually stored on the first sector of a disk, or in other words the first 512 bytes of the disk.

Did you mean a copy of the MBR?
I have a 512 byte file called stage1 in
my /boot/grub directory. That is
most likely a copy of the MBR.
