Greetings,

I have a one-disk thinkpad that currently dual-boots between
Windows2000 and Linux via the win2k OS boot loader.  I'd like to
replace the Linux partitition with a FreeBSD installation.  What is
the easiest way to do this?

I first installed w2k, then Linux, then used dd to peel the bootsector
from my Linux-root-Partition, and then added this to c:\boot.ini.

Could I just install FreeBSD on the Linux partition, then boot into
FreeBSD, and copy /boot/boot0 over to w2k and then add this to
c:\boot.ini?  Or, is there a better way?

Regards,
Graham
