today ran thru install using entire 2nd HD for bsd 5.0 by foolowing FREE BSD UNLEASHED 2nd ed. it seemed pretty straight forward. but after install did not boot into bsd. boot loader options were to come up after i initially said do nothing now when disk 2 was picked for install. but the later oppotunity never came up. xp is on disk 1 and bsd on 2nd. expected equivalent of lilo or grub to load on mbr of 1st disk but no such luck. what about a boot floppy option? this would be less nerve racking. no error messages came up only congatulations. i use dsl for internet connexn and not on any networks. just tying to learn. any ideas? thnx. a boot floppy would sure help so as not to damage winxp. thanx
