Well i'm not really sure what you mean, but if you installed freebsd on your second drive, and selected to load it's MBR, everything should be fine, and i don't think you should be worrying about anything. Having said that if you would rather use the windows MBR, you need to modify the boot.ini file in windows to look on the second disk for freebsd. You shouldn't have any problem on finding documentation for the boot.ini syntax from google. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
