Hi Gilles, > On dev/hda2 was my data partition.

" What da f*** This iso should be burned to CD and then FreeBSD must be installed, similar to what you did with your Linux-CD. /dev/hda2 is a good place, if /dev/hda1 is smaller than 8GB. (as in Linux itīs easier if your root partition is below the 1024 cylinder boundary). BTW, hda2 is called ad2 in FreeBSD. For further information look at www.freebsd.org . In Lilo, you have to treat FreeBSD like Windows. Look in the examples in the man page.
