Hello Everyone, I've recently changed my hard drives around and am having difficulty getting FreeBSD going again. Old setup: Primary master 1G: Freebsd Primary slave 420M: Win3.1 New setup: PM 4G: Win95 Secondary master 1G: Freebsd (unchanged) Secondary slave 420M: Future Freebsd partition How do I create a new boot manager on the 4G, change the one on the 1G, and then get it to find Freebsd's new location from then on? I've tried various things with the boot and fixit floppies without success. Fbsdboot'ing from the 4G results in a can't find root:panic. Thanks for your help!
