I'm trying to get Windows XP and FreeBSD 4.10 to dual boot. I'm installing onto a 40GB HD: 30GB - WinXP 10GB - BSD So I installed XP, and then FreeBSD, with the Boot Manager. Rebooted and I get the FreeBSD boot manager. When I hit F2, FreeBSD = loads without problems. However when I hit F1, the computer just beeps = at me. So I installed GRUB from the ports 0.94. I was able to manually boot = BSD with GRUB, but I could not figure out how to get XP to boot, it = didn't recognize the partition which XP was installed when I would do a = "root (hd0,0)". I've search for a few hours now, trying to figure this out. But I'm = stumped. Would this be easier with two Hard Drives? Any suggestions? Thanks, Andrew
