Hi,
I know there are loads of tutorials out there on how to multiboot
FreeBSD and Win2k. Nevertheless I somehow can't do it.
My hardware is a Asus A7V with AMD Athlon 1 GHz and a Promise ATA100
controller. I use a Tekram DC390-U2W SCSI controller, too.
I have installed Win2k on a disk at the SCSI controller. I used to run
Linux on a disk on the normal IDE controller (not the Promise). I could
boot both systems with LILO from the MBR on the IDE disk. Now I replaced
Linux with FreeBSD4.4-STABLE. I installed Booteasy into the MBR of the
IDE disk. I can start FreeBSD without any trouble but the boot menu just
shows:
F1 FreeBSD
F5 Default
Both boot the FreeBSD system. Do I have to configure Booteasy in a
lilo.conf-like way? I tried doing it via the Win2k-Bootloader but I
didn't get what was meant with "don't just copy /boot/boot0 instead of
/boot/boot1" as they are on different disks.
I also got to know that quite a few people's Booteasy DOES recognize
Win2k without any problems. Can anybody help?

Regards,
Volker Sturm
