Set NT up to boot and copy the file /usr/mdec/boot1 to the NT boot drive's root directory. Then edit boot.ini and add a line C:\boot1="FreeBSD" (I assume NT is on C:, but it could be anywhere) under [operating systems] You will now be able to choose FreeBSD at boot time.

I included boot easy with the install which should of booted either OS ?? At the moment I get the booteasy prompt menu with F1 going to FreeBSD and F5 going to disk two.. When I try to select FreeBSD it simply loops to the same prompt. When I try to boot off the second disk I get missing operating system... Am I doing something wrong?? If so what is it and what can I do to correct this issue???? ______ __ /___ / / / __ / /(@)__ / (@)__ / /__ lrios@ziplink.net / // / _ \/ / / _ \/ '_/ / //_/ .__/_/_/_//_/_/\_\ NASA TEAM / /__/_/___________________ `He who dies with the most toys win!` /___________________________ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
