Recently I installed FreeBSD onto my home system which also runs
Win98. I like BSD a lot better than Linux, which is what I run
primarily, because it si much cleaner. The problem I am having is with
the bootlaoder though. When I load and it asks what OS to boot and
I say windows everything is just fine and everyhting loads correctly.
Upon the next boot I am still presented with the menu again to choose my
OS. However, if I choose to boot FreeBSD upon the next restart the MBR
will now be gone and I get a please enter a system disk error. This is
a royal pain in the ass since I have to go about reinstalling the boot
loader or I have to make a boot disk which I think is a bad solution.
Is there anyone who can give me a hint as to what might be causing this
problem.
Thanks
Jake
P.S. FreeBSD is installed onto a secondary hard drive and windows is on
the master drive.
