Hello, I try to create a dualboot with Windows 7, I set up partitions like that : ada0s1 -> NTFS (windows recovery) ada0s2 -> NTFS (windows main partition) ada0s3 -> BSD ada0s3a -> freebsd-swap (3G) ada0s3b -> freebsd-ufs / (remaining space from drive) And then I let the installer complete the step, because FreeBSD didn't let you (since 9.0) choose between the boot manager nothing was installed and the boot directly goes to Windows 7. I installed EasyBCD to add a new entry to FreeBSD on the third partition, but when I choose the FreeBSD entry nothing happens, only the _ character blinking. Thus I tried bsdlabel -B ada0s3 from the FreeBSD iso shell but it didn't solve. What can I do to boot FreeBSD now? Cheers, -- David Demelier
