Rosenblatt" To: questions@FreeBSD.ORG Subject: boot manager artifacts? Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.81 Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG So I have this 9 gig IBM scsi disk. It was a dedicated FreeBSD drive for a long time but now needs to be reinstalled with partitions for 3 OSes -- NT, FreeBSD and a spare for anything else that looks interesting. I atempted to install NT but after it lays out it's boot code and reboots it fails to come up. I've run NT on this disk before without issue. I even tried booting off my FreeBSD cdrom and laying booteasy back on again after the NT first stage install. No good. Tried using DOS fdisk with the /mbr flag, also to no avail. So are there booteasy artifacts in my boot blocks and if so how do I clean em out? (As a side nots, this happened to a 4 gig IDE disk of mine as well).
