Dear support team,

boot is only possible from first partition (F1).
Any other partiton you try to boot from makes the  bootloader beep.
It is possible to boot from a second disk.

Materiel involved:

- FreeBSD 3.4
- Asus K7M (BIOS: Amibios Easy Setup Utilities 1.17) / Gigabyte 7IX
- Athlon 600/500

We stated the same problem for freeBSD 3.2 and 3.3.

How to make to be able to boot from a second partition on the same disk? =
(Bootloader is installed)

Many thanks for help in advance

Yours

Fran=E7ois Randin
Claudio Eichenberger
