How can I use the Windows NT loader to boot FreeBSD?" listed on bsd site. I have installed my first bsd on the second disk with whole space, and I have chosen to install bootmgr. But when reboot, I found my machine went to Windows as usual.I think the installer just wrote the mbr of the second disk, so I choose to load my bsd from Windows loader. I know the general idea of your answer, but I still have 3 questions. 1.I can not boot my bsd, but how I can get the /boot/boot0 from bsd? 2.If I have solution to getting /boot/boot0, how it can work? I mean, when my machine reach the boot.ini on the Windows disk, then I choose bsd to boot, then my machine read the C:\BOOTSECT.BSD while contains the content of the second disk's mbr,then my machine boot bsd successfully, Am I right? 3.Is there any other solutions to my situation? Thank a lot! cheers, Hu Shouwen 2004-11-19 --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? 150万曲MP3疯狂搜,带您闯入音乐殿堂 美女明星应有尽有,搜遍美图、艳图和酷图 1G就是1000兆,雅虎电邮自助扩容!
