Hi,


 I installed Freebsd just today, and after i get that "Freebsd has now been installed on your system" message, i exited install and rebooted. But once i rebooted and got to the boot menu, freebsd wasn't on the list. I have two windows operating systems installed on my computer, windows 98 and windows 2000. (They were installed before freebsd was installed), and windows 98 is on a seperate hdd, while win2k and freebsd is on another paritioned hdd.
 And yes, i did put an X mark beside install Boot Manager during the installation of FreeBSD. 
  A friend told me to install the boot manager through DOS, and that i needed some other files that i couldn't find on the ISO image that i burned from you guys. (boot0)
  Need some help on this, because freebsd ain't booting.

Thanks 

Rey

p.s. btw..i have no experience whatsoever with freebsd, or any unix os', so that kinda puts me in a bad position.
