How do I go about installing FreeBSD (6.3) on it now? Anyone has done this already please?
I had the exact same problem just a few days ago and two solutions were quickly posted here: 1: http://www.clearchain.com/wiki/FreeBSD_%26_Windows_Vista 2: When installing FreeBSD and you are asked what boot manager to install select to not install anything. In this way your Vista boot will not be affected. If after this you find that at startup you are not given ANY choice but FreeBSD starts automatically, this is simply because it's partition is marked active. Boot with a CD like Norton Partition Magic or GParted and mark the Vista partition active. Boot Vista, then download and install the EasyBCD from http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1 It is then trivial to add a stanza to Vista bootloader (!) to boot FreeBSD.
