Is it possible to have two drive on a system with each drive have different OS. please set your mailer to wrap lines at 70 characters. yes, freebsd can run on the second harddrive of your system, however at the boot prompt you'll have to do this: set root_disk_unit= <drive number> if the machine has problems booting after install. you can perminantly set that by editing files in /boot check "man loader" after you are up and running. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
