Hello My name is David. I'm a big freebsd fan. I've install many freebsd from the 4.X series in the past. Anyway ,I purchase the freebsd 5.0 Jan 2003 series and everything went fine except for the boot manager. It boots up the freebsd but not my windows 98 partion. This is the first time I am seeing this. This never happen with the other freebsd's I installed in the past. Windows is on drive 0 and freebsd is on drive 1, the boot manager installed on both disks and the boot flag S = Set bootable on their respective partions. The boot manager for drive 0 lists: F1 DOS F5 Drive 1 When I press F1 , I get this message: Invalid system disk, Replace the disk and press any key The boot manager for drive 1 list: F1 Freebsd F5 Drive 0 When I press F1, freebsd boots up fine. F5 bring me back to the boot listing for drive 0. Nothing wrong here. Like I said, this never happen to me with the 4.X series of freebsd. All 4.X series installed fine and the boot manager loaded up windows or freebsd. If you have any suggestions I would surely appreciate it. Thanks
