I can't tell you about Wine, but you can easily use the FreeBSD bootloader to boot to either FreeBSD or Windows. Because Windows may want to be on the first hard disk and FreeBSD doesn't care, make your FreeBSD disk second in the BIOS boot order. When you install FreeBSD, choose to install the FreeBSD bootloader on *both* of your disks. You will then be able to select at boot time whether to boot into Windows or FreeBSD. Jud
