I would appreciate some help with booting FreeBSD, since I am not
subscribed to the list, please reply to my address.
I am installing freeBSD on a second hard disk and am not able to
boot it after installation. I run linux on the second partition on the first
disk and boot it, and dos/widnows(first part of first drive) with lilo on
the MBR. When I use BootEasy it reports one dos, and a ?, which wont boot.
likely becuase it is a large drive. does anyone know haw to make lilo
boot FreeBSD? or is there a way to boot a root filesystem with a floppy ?
or is there anything that could be done so that boot easy can find my
drives and boot all the operating systems install?
