Hi, 

I've successfully installed FreeBSD 2.2.2 on my first HD, a Quantum 1.2
gig, replacing Linux. My second HD, which contains DOS, is a 245MB
Maxtor. With LILO I was able to boot DOS off of the second disk, but
with the FreeBSD boot manager when I try to boot DOS I get the error
"Not a system disk." If I boot DOS from a floppy it starts up fine. Any
idea what I'm doing wrong? If you need more information please let me
know. 

Thanks for your help.
