It jams immediately after hitting f2? It may be that win95 initializes something that BSD doesn't appreciate so it hangs. This is a Compaq computer so I'm ruling out nothing :) > So, is there a solution? Another bootmanager perhaps, some trick?? I honestly don't think so. Compaq's already have a strike against them for the PCI bus incompatibility, so I'm not surprised by your problems. However, I don't think we can do anything for you at this time unless one of the developers could get his hands on it to see what is going on.
