Does anyone know of a program that will boot FreeBSD from Win95, as mentioned before, it is on the secondary partition of the Secondary drive, if I boot from Floppy it just tells me that It can find kernel and gives me the boot: prompt, So, does anyone know about the following - winboot.exe booting FreeBSD from FAT32 How to boot from the secondary drive Why did they call Linux 'Linux' rather than 'Lunix' ??
