(I could be mistaken) 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.
