Everything is great except my knowledge of the boot menu. My two options upon boot are F1: ?? F2: FreeBSD Where ?? is Win2k. Can someone please tell me how to assign a label to my Win2k install? or just tell me what man pages to look at? TIA Chad Albert _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Chad - You can't relabel the options BootEasy provides - that's in the FAQ on the = FreeBSD web site. If you want a boot menu that allows you to label the options, you can confi= gure Win2K's bootloader to do this (also in the FAQ), or install grub fro= m the ports (/usr/ports/sysutils/grub). I happen to like grub a lot. If= you do install it, since it's a bootloader and screwups may result in a = non-bootable machine, read the documentation carefully.
