[-- Attachment #1 --]
I'm having problems installing FreeBSD 4.0 on my second hard drive.  I cannot get it to install the boot loader.  I followed the instructions given (although they were sparse to say the least), but when I restart the computer the boot loader isn't there.  I searched for information on it in the FreeBSD documentation, but didn't find anything, so I'm asking here.  If it makes a difference, the first hard drive has MSDOS and Windows NT 4.0 installed on it (1 FAT16 partition and 2 NTFS partitions).  Please, I would appreciate any help.
