I don't want to write in my MBR because i'm totally paranoid (I've messed it up before), and would like to make my OS selection by inserting the right floppy. I'm currently not able to boot my freeBSD. I'm very new tu this OS and need very precise instructions for creating the floppy. I have access to a working Linux, and a win98 system. My freeBSD is installed on the first partition on my slave harddrive. I think its called ad1sd1 or somethong like that. thanks Peter To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
