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=3D"FreeBSD" into boot.ini file. When I select FreeBSD =
from NT boot loader, my NT partition was messed up badly. :(=20

Thanks!

Long
