I have 2 questions to do with the FreeBSD Boot Loader. Currently my system uses the standard MBR to point to the hard disk for booting, but I want to go a step further.... (A) How can I install the 'FreeBSD Boot Loader' at this late stage without damaging my current installation? (B) When I attach my second hard disk (with Linux on it) to my FreeBSD box, how can I configure the newly installed Boot Loader (from point A) to give the option of booting either OS on either disk? Many thanks, and I look forward to your replies Phil. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
