Help....
I have a Win98 system with 2 hard drives.. C: for my win 98 and I formatted the D; and installed FreeBSD 3.4 without any major problems...upon rebooting for the 1st time after installing FreeBSD, I received the following virus notification for NAV..
"Master Boot Record infected with the 'Bloodhound.mbr virus"
NAV could not remove it...
Have you heard of this happening before??????
My system was clean before the install of FreeBSD 3.4.. could your CDROM have been made with this virus?
Also, Win98 comes up only and I have no option to boot from FreeBSD or Win98... is this Normal and If so how do I start FreeBSD?
thanks.. hope to be using this alot in our Firewall development.
