Hi, I have installed FreeBSD 2.2.5 on my PC, in one of the partitions on a new disk. The details of the disks are: Disk Number Drive Size OS ----------- ----- ----- --- 1 C: 1.2 GB Windows 95 2 D: 500 MB DOS 2575 MB Free BSD The second disk is divided into two partitions and in the second partition, FreeBSD in installed. Using the disk partition editor, I have made both the partitions in the second disk active (by pressing 's'). I have chosen to install the Boot manager provided as part of the software. But when I boot the machine, I don't get any choice to choose between BSD and Windows 95. According to the documentation, it is supposed to show something like: F1 : Windows F2 : bsd The machine always goes on to boot Windows 95. How can I get to boot into BSD? Please let me know what I need to do. -- Regards, Mahesh =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Mahesh Bhaskarpandit | Phone: (W) 650-506-3246 Oracle Corporation, | (R) 650-345-1879 500, Oracle Parkway, | Fax: 650-506-7355 Redwood City, CA - 94065 | E-mail: mbhaskar@us.oracle.com | maheshb30@hotmail.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-+-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
