I had the following configuration master drive(ide): windows nt 3.5, 500meg slave drive(ide): 1st 500meg fbsd, the rest windows nt This configuration worked flawlessly untill yesterday when I reformatted and repartitioned both of my harddrives. Also, for the above config. I used only one primary disk controller. Now I have windows 95 on my 1st ide and fnsd on the 2nd ide drive with 2 slices of 360 meg each. I also tried one large 700 meg slice. I am using a secondary e-ide controller for the fbsd hd. I installed win95 1st and then fbsd, installation runs very smoothly (from WC-cdrom) and I install (supposedly) the boot manager (also tried standard) but when it reboots, there is absolutely no trace of the boot manager or any part of fbsd. I get booted directly into win95!!!! Is there any way around this problem? Isn't fbsd supposed to overwrite the win95 boot blocks? Thanks for your time :-) Cihat Ozhasoglu Dept. of Physics Suny at Buffalo Buffalo, NY 14260-1500 email: ozhas-c@acsu.buffalo.edu
