I want to boot straight from floppy like in Linux so I don't mess with my primary IDE HD and windoze 95. I have the new BSD 2.5.1. I've tried to install the boot manager on both drives as well. I've tried to tell the install floppy to boot from the newly installed BSD drive but with no luck. I've read many of your mail questions and FAQs but with to clear cut answers, if that's even possible. Can you HELP. Thanks for you time and patients.
