Hi, I installed FBSD 2.1.6 via the novice setting and things went pretty smooth. The only problem is I haven't found a way to boot it up after installation! I chose to install a boot manager in the install process but the machine boot straight back to win 95. I tried os-bs135 on the cdrom but the newly installed FBSD partition doesn't show up. My disk set up is OS disk size where -- -------- ----- win95 1 GB IDE1-1 (/dev/wd0 ?) Linux 512 MB IDE2-1 (/dev/wd2 ?) FBSD 256 MB IDE2-2 (/dev/wd3 ?) Is there a way to boot FBSD from floppy? At present I boot Linux using loadlin, is there something similar in FBSD. Is there a nice boot manager that works with all 3 OSes? Thanks. -- Billy C.-M.
