Hi everyone,

	I was wondering if the following will work.  I have a Western 
Digital 1.6GIG Drive which I setted up as LBA Mode in the BIOS when I 
installed FreeBSD as wd0 and I forgot to change the geometry in fdisk so 
the bootstrap doesn't work.  The drive has a 540 meg DOS partition and 
the rest is FreeBSD.  Now, I am booting off the second 1.275 GIG Conner 
CFA1275A Drive as wd1 which is in NORMAL Bios Mode.  Now I wonder if I 
put the wd0 drive in Normal mode in the Bios, and boot from the second 
drive, and then bootstrap -B wd0, will this allow the first drive to boot 
and not mess up the FreeBSD partition?

	Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Vince
