I want to have a boot manager that will let me choose from these at boot time. The problem is, the Linux loader (LILO) doesn't recognize a FreeBSD boot partition and the FreeBSD bootmaster doesn't seem to recognize Linux. Either one recognizes DOS, so I can have either DOS+Linux or DOS+FreeBSD. Is there a way I can have Linux+FreeBSD ? Thanks. Dhiman.
