Hi, All. I have a SATA-II disk, which split for 4 primary partitions, eg: 1. NTFS (Active) / ntldr 2. BSD (/var, /usr) 4. NTFS 3. BSD (/, swap) * partitions showed as 'how it's phisicaly placed on drive' Used bootpart I have create 'freebsd.bin' and try to loadup it into ntldr, boot.ini eg: bootpart 2 LBA freebsd.bin Freebsd loader shows two error messages about 'Invalid Partition' and prompt me boot: 0:ad(0,a)/boot/kernel/kernel Then I 'by hands' try: 0:ad(4,3,a)/boot/loader, Free BSD has normal start loader, menus, kernel, etc... works! I try write this line in /boot.config, but have no any result... eg: echo "0:ad(4,3,a)/boot/loader" >/boot.config Help me please, how I can get autoboot from slice 3, unit 4 ? PS: sorry for my english. -- With all regards, Victor M. Blood. mailto: freebsd@masm.elcom.ru FTN: 2:5024/1.95@Fidonet.org, ICQ#3567656
