Hello..
I am currently running FreeBSD 5.2.1, installing of OS'es is really not a hard task for me, except this one time and it has to do with WINDOWS XP on my primary hardrive (IDE1). Problem is this: Since I am running Windows XP on my primary C drive, and I goto install the FreeBSD boot easy loader(Option 1), there was a time when by doing just that, It destroyed the MBR of my primary drive! Strange as it may seem, though why would windows xp be destroyed if I tried to install on a separate physical hard drive (D:/) the free bsd boot loader? I am some what "scared" to even bother with a boot loader. Please advise on what I can do to make windows XP allow another OS like FREEBSD to work though its on a separate drive.
Synopsis of problem: XP installed on primary master (ad0), and freebsd installed taking up whole secondary master drive (ad1), goto install freebsd boot loader... CAN'T BOOT BACK INTO WINDOWS XP, AND ALL IS LOST.. I did not choose install standard MBR, I chose option #1 for install freebsd boot easy loader on drive ad1!!, not ad0!!
help..
Erik
