Just a minimal install to test the water. Now that I see how to do it I need to go back and set up a boot manager or add BSD to LILO.conf on the linux OS sharing the disk. At the moment I can't enter my new install for lack of knowing how with a boot disk. During the install, at the part where you select a boot manger or not, I heeded the message that says `dos pc users will almost certainly need to choose none'. So how to enter BSD OS. This box has dos/win on the first primary, and Redhat linux and FreeBSD on the first slave. (wd1) I understood I could add a stanza to Lilo.conf to include BSD but realized I don't know where the kernal is located or how to point Lilo at it. -- Harry Putnam reader@newsguy.com Running Redhat Linux-5.1 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
