Hi everyone,

I am running 3.2-RELEASE at home, and also Win98 on a dual boot.  Three
days ago, my Win98 crashed completely, and I was unable to log into
Windows (geez, what a surprise).  I took the opportunity and reloaded my
machine with 98SE, but upon reboot I noticed that the bootstrap loader
doesn't come up anymore, and I am now simply booted straight into Windows
without being asked which OS I'd like to boot into.  ALL my serious
information is on my BSD partition, and I would hate to lose it all.  

My question to everyone is:  How do I get the boot loader back without
re-installing?  Any help here would be much appreciated.

Thanks for your help in advance,
Marc
