To accomplish it I copied /boot/boot1 to C:\free.bsd using a floppy and the wrote C:\boot.ini like this [boot loader] timeout=30 default=C:\free.bsd [operating systems] C:\free.bsd="FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE" multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windows XP" which results in FreeBSD being the first option and being selected by default in the menu. I bet it can be done with Linux that way. -- fxn To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
