Sorry, I complained about this so long ago and even pointed out the problem in the code that i finally got so sick of it that i created the first partition again and just moved everything over. I don't have a machine with a setup like that anymore to test (where the first BSD partition is not bootable) I might get a harddrive today though i can try it out if it's important. I'll tell you if i get a chance to reproduce my old broken setup. thank you though, Alfred Perlstein - Programmer, HotJobs Inc. - www.hotjobs.com -- There are operating systems, and then there's FreeBSD. -- http://www.freebsd.org/ 3.0-current On Wed, 28 Oct 1998, Robert Nordier wrote: > Synopsis: FreeBSD will NOT boot itself if it's not the first BSD partition > > State-Changed-From-To: open-feedback > State-Changed-By: rnordier > State-Changed-When: Wed Oct 28 16:02:07 PST 1998 > State-Changed-Why: > The new boot code /sys/boot/i386/boot2 will boot from the active, > rather than first, BSD slice.
