For simplicity, I've moved the FreeBSD drive to another system.  Thus, my
current system has NT 4.0 on drive 0 (i.e., C:) and Win 95 on 1 (i.e., D:).
I would like to get this working so I can put the FreeBSD drive back in this
system, however.

I downloaded bootpart, and it sure looked promising when it found drive 0 and
drive 1.  I then got it to write the Win95 boot sector to a file and update the
boot.ini file accordingly.  However, when I reboot the machine and select
"Windows 95", I get:

	Invalid system disk
	Replace the disk, and then press any key

Any ideas?  I'll email the author of the program, but wondered if anyone else could
point me in the right direction.

Thanks for the help!
