Subject: Can two versions of FreeBSD coexist in a single disk?


Hello,

I have a hard disk with 2 slices in its partition table.  In the first one
I have FreeBSD 2.2.8 and I have not touched the second one for anything.

I received my FreeBSD 3.0 and I thought I could installed it  in the
second slice...

Everything worked ok during the installation.

When the installation process rebooted my machine, the first slice
had lost its disklabel entry... I could not boot from the first slice
anymore...

WHAT HAPPENED???

I did not make anything weird.  I swear!
Has anybody had the same problem?
