One of the Ubuntu Documentation contributors, drs305, has written (and been updating) a wiki page on Grub2, which you can find here [1]. It is geared toward Ubuntu users who have Grub2 installed from Ubuntu, but a lot of the basics should be applicable to FreeBSD as well. You are welcome to expand on the wiki page, or if you host your guide on a FreeBSD site, please let us know. I don't believe the existing wiki page outlines multibooting in much detail yet, so your knowledge in this field would be very helpful. [1] https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2 Cheers, -Connor
