4.1 boot question

I recently tried to make my own /boot for a 750 4.1 and got burned.
All I wanted to do is recompile the boot and put it there. What
I did was go to /usr/sys/stand and remake boot as such:
make boot
I then moved this to /boot. The boot program `ran', but printed out
`not a directory'. This was not true. The original boot (after many
contortions getting it back) worked fine afterwards.
I noticed that te make did a dd. Is that the problem? Can I move the
plain a.out to /boot? It also strips it which I guess it to cut the
size down before loading it.
Any suggestions?
