I have used OS Commander 4. Well, actually, IIRC, I never did anything
special. Ie, I didn't use "Wizards" and suchlike; I only used OS
Commander tools for deleting some partitions, and resizing a FAT32
partition.

<recollections type=3D"once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away...">
Upon the next (FreeBSD) boot, OS Commander automatically recognized my
new roaring shining (then) FreeBSD 3.3-R system.

<further installations snipped>
BTW, it could even manage  **three** FreeBSD systems (among other ahem
things) on my 3-HD junk^H^H^H^Hworkstation.

I could boot OpenBSD, Linux, BeOS, Winblows9x/NT,... again I can't
remember doing anything special.
</recollections>

System Commander 2000 probably behaves in a similar way, ie it should
automagically recognize there is a FreeBSD OS on one of your disks.
Otherwise, the product is decidedly NOT an improvement on the previous
version :-)

Anyway, <golden "antiscrew" rule> please backup your valuable data, if y=
ou
haven't already done so.

HTH,
Salvo
