In order to run some software, I have to upgrade the Windows. In the past, my experience has been that windows is too stupid to preserve the boot loader, wiping out my access to my FreeBSD partition. What's the easiest way to restore the bootloader? I did it once before by re-doing the FBSD install with filesystem create turned off, but now I've CVSup'd to 3.2-R#10 level so my CD's (I have both 3.1R and Toolkit) are no longer current. Is there a quick way to fix the bootloader without wiping out my system? -- Donald Wilde "Bringing the Internet to everyone!"
