Hi David,

I would suggest you to try the Masterbooter which I have been using for many
years.
http://www.masterbooter.com

The shareware version is free and should fullfill your needs

Regards,
Bryan

Subject: freebsd 5.0 boot manager


> 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.
