Yes, 1) First install NT on the disk (take care of the 1024 cyl limit). 2) install FreeBSD & save the bootinst.exe program from the cdrom on a dos bootable diskette 3) boot from dos in diskette 4) do a "fdisk /mbr" from the dos diskette 5) install bootinst.exe from the same diskette and let it write the boot manager OK. now boot from the HD, it prompts now for NT or FreeBSD.
