Currently I am using NT's boot mgr to boot into NT/Linux, and want to continue to use it since I have heard that it is sort of sensitive. I have seen postings which say that using dd if=/dev/wd0c of=/mnt/bootsect.bsd bs=512 count=1 and altering the boot.ini file in the NT partition will allow me to choose to boot into FreeBSD. I wanted to know if this will continue to work in FreeBSD 4.0 (the postings were for earlier verions)... Thanks, Shameek ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
