I'm trying to use the BootManager but I don't think I'm configuring it correctly. I've successfully installed FreeBSD 2.2.2 onto the D drive of my computer. Win95 is on the C drive. During the installation, first it asks what drive I'm installing on. I select wd2 (D), and then tell it to use the whole drive. Next it asks if I want to use the BootManager, and I say yes. It again asks what drive to use, and I can't figure out which drive to select. If I select wd0 (C), thinking I'm telling it to put the BootManager on my primary drive, the next screen tries to partition my C drive. Eep. If I select wd2 (D), assuming that FreeBSD knew where the BootManager goes and is just asking again where to install, everything goes fine. However, when I restart, it just boots into Win95 as usual and I have to manually boot FreeBSD using the install disk. Clues much appreciated. :) -Nick
