I did it for several months with OS/2's boot manager on a box that had DOS, OS/2, and Lose95 on the first IDE and FreeBSD on the second. You can also boot FreeBSD off a third IDE drive. I'm doing it on this box with osbsbeta.exe from the /tools dir. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack O'Neill Finger jacko@onyx.xtalwind.net or jack@xtalwind.net http://www.xtalwind.net/~jacko/pubpgp.html #include for my PGP key.
