I have two hard drives, and the first has FreeBSD v4.5 installed and works. My second hard drive has Windows98 installed and works by itself. When you boot the second drive by self, you get the menu: F1 DOS Default: F1 Once you hit the enter key, it boots Windows normally. However when I set it up as the secondary with my FreeBSD drive as primary the menu: F1 FreeBSD F5 Drive 1 << I press F5 in an attempt to boot to the other drive. Default: F1 Appears...Pressing F5 gives me the menu: F1 DOS << I press F1 to try booting Windows, however it locks up. F5 Drive 0 Default: F1 I can look at the secondary drive (ad0s1) with Fdisk and disklabel, but can't seem to make a connection between the primary drives boot0 and the secondary drive. Help?
