Disk 2 (slave): 80GB - FreeBSD 5.4 on the first 50 GB, FAT32 for storage to the rest. Both are at the same IDE controller (disk 1 is ad0, disk 2 is ad1) I have (mis)installed the BSD boot manager to the ad1, which, since is master, is being bipassed at the start, and windows is starting his usual business. So I have no glimpse whatsoever of FreeBSD when I boot, but takeing a peek via PartitionMagic, it is there. Also, I was succesfull at all steps of the installation. I would like to know how to (step-by-step, talking to a noob here) enter BSD, get the boot0 file and copy it into C: as if you were talking to a 5 year old boy you just met on the street. Thanks a lot, Artur Soares. ____________________________________________________ Yahoo! Mail, cada vez melhor: agora com 1GB de espaço grátis! http://mail.yahoo.com.br
