[-- Attachment #1 --] Hello, I've put FreeBSD 4.0 on my 2nd IDE drive. I also have NT 4.0 SP6 installed on my 1st IDE drive. Slackware Linux is on my 3rd IDE drive. I've succefully booted Linux from NT loader for a few years now. Is there a reliable way to boot FreeBSD from NT boot manager? I am currently using boot floppy to access my FreeBSD. I think there is an error in FAQ for booting FreeBSD from NT boot loader. I've follow the procedure there by copying /boot/boot0 as bootsect.bsd and added c:\bootsect.bsd="FreeBSD" into boot.ini file. When I select FreeBSD from NT boot loader, my NT partition was messed up badly. :( Thanks!
