> Hello FreeBSD users > I'm preparing to install FreeBSD 3.2 OS on my box and would like some feedback. I plan to add a second HDD (WD 4 gig) to this box ( can't afford a SCSI yet). I'm presently running Windoze 98 on a 2.1 gig HDD. CPU is a Pentium 166 w/MMX, 128 megs. I plan to switch Windoze 98 to the new HDD and put FreeBSD 3.2 on the 2.1 HDD. I have yet seen anything about booting with two HDD's. Install the Boot Manager on the wincrash hd. I'm pretty sure it's in the hand book, and know it's in "The Compllete FreeBSD" by Greg Lehey. Installing the manager is an option you can choose during the install. It's kind of neat. wincrash insists on being top dog, but will not be aware FBSD exists. On the other hand, you can work on wincrash files from FBSD if need be. ML Duke To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
