I want to install 3.1 on the second. Can this be done? Actually I haved attempted, but am having problems getting the 3.1 to boot. This is how I did the install of the second bsd: 1. Partitioned 2.3 Gig for dos using fdisk for dos. 2. Formatted the the partitioned area. 3. Put files on it (to make sure everything was ok). 4. Created the kernel and mfsroot disks. 5. Did the installation, from the mfsroot disk. Now I am unable to boot the 2nd bsd drive. My slices look like the following: wd1s2 / 200Meg wd1s2a swap 128 Meg wd1s4f /var 112 Meg wd1s4e /usr 3.7 Gig wd1s12 /dos 2.0 Gig Help!!!!!!!!!
