I'm having a problem with my pc after I installed 3.1-RELEASE. The machine is a dell precision workstation 410 with an onboard 7890 and 7880. Attached to the 7890 is a 9 gig Quantum Viking II ultra2-LVD disk with 5 separate partitions: Offset Size End Name PType Desc Subtype Flags 0 63 62 - 6 unused 0 63 8385867 8385929 da0s1 1 NTFS/HPFS/QNX 7 8385930 7341705 15727634 da0s2 1 NTFS/HPFS/QNX 7 15727635 2104515 17832149 da0s3 3 freebsd 165 C> 17832150 4518 17836667 - 6 unused 0 > off the 7880 are two seagate drives da1 and da2 with da1 containing the rest of the freebsd system and da2 being total dedicated to a fat system. The install went fine and when I rebooted, it booted up FreeBSD, so I installed the boot manager I've been using in the past osbsbeta. When I rebooted to NT the boot blue screened after the kernel loading screen. So I then went back and install the boot manager that comes with FreeBSD. That atleast allows me to boot up NT, but now the drive da0 disk shows up as the d drive and the ds2 disk is assigned to the c drive, backwards from what it was and of course most of the programs fail because they are looking at the wrong disk. My question is what did I screw up, most likey the boot partition on the da0 disk, and given that it's an NTFS system what do I need to fix it??
