No question about it. I am almost there. The only problem is that when I boot up to the new FreeBSD system (CD unselected and hardrive selected in boot sequence), I get a kind of login that says: FreeBS/i386 boot Default: 1: ad (1,a) default No /boot/kernel/kernel Then Default: 1: ad(1,a)/ boot/kernel/kernel boot: default No default There are no root hash marks or whatever. It's just as it appears above. What does this mean, please? By the way, I checked my Windows. Everything is fine. Thank you. Benjamin
