Is there anyway to get it back? > thanks in advance > If you have any FreeBSD distribution in CD-ROM you can restore your boot manager simply by going to the \tools directory on ther first CD and running BOOTINST.EXE I'm not sure, but I believe you should boot in MS-DOS native, since maybe Win95 doesn't like the MBR be changed, but again I'm not really sure about this. If you don't have any CD-ROM distribution you surely can find Easyboot in any FreeBSD ftp site, but I don't know exactly in which directory. Good luck Jesus ------ Jesus A.
