I've happily run Booteasy with Windows 95.

Another option - which I now use, is to boot to '95 first, but put a
menu in the config.sys and autoexec.bat, and use fbsdboot.exe
to get to FreeBSD.  The reason that I do this, is that Booteasy seems to
have troubles since I've put my FreeBSD partition beyond
the 512MB mark.

Dave.
