Greetings,

	I am looking for information to create a DOS program
which will boot the FreeBSD from the 2nd CD (FreeBSD distribution).

	In Sun/Linux system, you can enter  "b cdrom" and it will
boot the system from the Linux CD. I want to create a similiar
program so that I can "b cdrom" (FreeBSD) from any X86 system.

	
	I want to put this program in the autoexec.bat so that
no user interaction is needed to boot either from the CD or from
the HD. 

	Where should I start ? (fbsdboot.exe ?)

	Thank you for your help.

	
	Francis
