My solution (rather ugly) was to install them into different partitions. First I installed 2.2.8 (or 3.1? don't remember), then changed partition type in the MBR to something different from A5 with Norton Disk Editor. After that installation of second system went fine (it just did not notice the first). Finally, when I want to switch between systems, I have to edit partition table with Norton Disk Editor :-) to change first's type to/from A5. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Sergey Ayukov Sternberg Astronomical Institute http://www.ayukov.com Moscow, Russia http://crydee.sai.msu.ru/index-asv.html To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
