I'm having some problems dual booting FreeBSD 4.2-stable and Windows 98SE on my computer off of two separate disks (one SCSI for FreeBSD, one ATA for Windows) They both have the FreeBSD boot manager installed. When I set the BIOS to boot off the SCSI disk first, FreeBSD boots fine, but Windows hangs right away. When I set the BIOS to boot off the ATA disk first, FreeBSD boots fine, but Windows complains about EMM386 not being installed, makes be press a key, loads EMM386, and then boots. I know this is technically a windows question, but the only answer I got from the windows people I asked is "Take the other OS off the second drive." As far as I'm concerned, that is not an answer. I hope someone knows what's going on with my setup. Jeff Blaufuss To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
