After you get FreeBSD booted once (playing with your BIOS, booting
from the CD or floppy or whatever), use the boot0cfg command to
install the boot0 boot manager on the Windows disk. That should then
offer you a choice of booting Windows, or booting from the other
drive. If you've got boot0 installed on the FreeBSD disk, choosing the
other drive will let you boot FreeBSD or drive 0. If you don't like
making the second choice, use fdisk to install the standard boot
manager on the FreeBSD disk.
