If you do have the installations in two seperate slices on the one disk,
you should be able to use a boot selector to boot which ever slice you
want.
I don't know if this will work with booteasy the boot manager that comes
with FreeBSD by default, but there is a nice boot manager called
OS Select (tools/os-bs.exe in the FreeBSD distribution I think)..
(the setup program is an MSDOS exe)
It allows you to create a menu of OS's to boot from by selecting the
relevant
slices from the list it shows. It also allows you to set a default slice
to
boot aswell as a timeout counter.
Whether it will work or not in your situation remains to be seen.. :)
