On the machine in question, I installed the OS/2 boot manager in its
own slice (trust me). Then I installed MS-DOS in its own slice. Then
went back to the OS/2 install and installed OS/2 in the extended
slice. Then I installed FreeBSD in the final slice.
On the OS/2 boot manager, only add OS/2 to the list---don't add any of
the other operating systems.
When I boot up, I get FreeBSD's boot mgr with three choices: dos, os/2
(the os/2 boot mgr), and FreeBSD. If I choose os/2, it goes right to
booting OS/2 from the extended slice since it's the only choice on
os/2's boot mugger.
Good luck.
