Daniel> How did you set it up? 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.
