I had been using a partition of my IDE drive before. I just recently bought a SCSI drive that I'd like to put FreeBSD on. I can get through the install fine and everything, but when I try to boot with booteasy it just keeps giving me the boot options and never boots into BSD. However, I can still boot into Win 95. I tried using the OS boot select program from the /pub/FreeBSD/tools directory, but that only gives me an error message saying that there is no OS on my SCSI disk. I can boot into Win 95 with that boot loader as well. Any ideas? My IDE drive (Win 95) is my primary and my SCSI drive (FreeBSD) is recognized at boot time as DOS drive D: (or so my Adaptec would like to think). Any ideas will be greatly appreciated...thanks! - Justin J.
