It's interesting when you say that you didn't have this problem with 3.2. I had this very same problem when I installed Norton (version 5 engine) using FBSD 3.2 -so maybe you were luckier. McAfee doesn't suffer from this problem, so I've stuck with it (and 3.2). At a guess the bootmanager is writing to the boot sector to set the active partition flag , which is where Norton is getting it's knickers in a knot. Alan "J.B.
