Ricca" X-Sender: rricca@franny.salinger.net To: FreeBSD-Questions Subject: Help with BootEasy... Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I'm relatively new to freebsd and have somehow hosed windows on my first partition. When everything worked I got this message at startup: F1 Windows F2 FreeBSD F3 FreeBSD However, it was sort of annoying because the second freebsd partition is the location of my /home directory (not bootable). So I used boot0cfg to mask off the third slice (-m 0x3) and found that it got rid of the third slice, except when I try to boot into windows, when I get something like the following: F1 Windows F2 FreeBSD F3 Disk0 The computer beeps and doesn't boot the first slice, but will boot the second (FreeBSD). My partition table looks like: 1 Windows 2 FreeBSD (/) 3 FreeBSD (/home) and I have a swap partition on a different disk drive plugged into the SCSI port. Can anyone help?
