During installation I did set the FreeBSD slice with the / system bootable, I also set the Windows partition bootable. I believe, I choose install the boot manager on both disks. In other words I hoped I did exact that way. But it won't work. > FYI: The '???' label will be for your >Windows >partition, and it should work. I hoped so. And old Windows versions (on a different box) booted. That is why I start to wonder if XP is different. >2 - Use the GAG boot loader. It's simple as can be. > <URL: >http://gag.sourceforge.net/>. Yes, I guess I should use that or GRUB. Bye, Marc
