Drive 1: DOS Primary parition (C:) Drive 2: DOS Extended partition (E:) Drive 3: DOS Primary parition (D:) for 460 Mb FreeBSD (rest of drive) I chose not to install the boot manager since my wife uses the machine quite a bit, and did not want to bother with it. I was hoping to use "fbsdboot" to boot FreeBSD, but it gives me "bad disklabel Cannot find /kernel" no matter what I do. I can boot FreeBSD by using the install floppy, and entering "wd(2,a)/kernel" at the boot: prompt. How can I fix my machine so that fbsdboot will let me boot?? Any suggestions would be helpful.
