Hello All

Problem:

It is near impossible to have two FreeBSD partitions on a single HDD and 
boot between them ( i say this from the point of view that it is impossible 
to maintain this configuration when doing an upgrade on the Second FBSD 
Partition). So i was wondering if anyone out there has booted PicoBSD from 
anyting other than a FreeBSD partition ie DOS, ext2fs etc

Thanks


Kind regards

Gary Barnden (Network Engineer)
