I think you have to change and reinstall the bootblocks of your FreeBSD partition. Take a lock in /usr/src/sys/i386/boot/boot.c There you have to change the line part = unit = 0; into part = 0; unit = 1; recompile (make; make install) and install them via (if wd0 is your FreeBSD disk) disklabel wd0 > dl.wd0 diaklabel -Rr wd0 dl.wd0 /usr/mdec/wdboot /usr/mdec/bootwd After changing the disks FreeBSD should boot automatic from your second drive. Another possibility is to enter when the boot prompt appears: wd(1,a)/386bsd i guess, but take a close lock at the message the boot loader prints on the screen. For further question also take a lock in the FAQ file for FreeBSD. Good luck Lars -- ______________________________________________________________________________ Lars Köller E-Mail: University of Rostock (Germany) lars.koeller@odie.physik2.Uni-Rostock.DE Fachbereich Physik Universitätsplatz 3 Phone: +49 381/498-1665 or 498-1648 18051 Rostock Fax: +49 381/498-1667
