I am currently using BootMagic to boot my main box which in running Windows98 and FreeBSD 4.3. When I setup my FreeBSD system, I did not load any boot manager. (My FreeBSD install was done to the second hard drive in my box). BootManager has no problems booting either Win98 or FreeBSD, although it did not automatically detect my FreeBSD system. (I had to use the 'advanced' option in BootMagic to setup booting) Hope this helps.
