You are in fact the first person to ask this on the ML AFAIK. While I don't have a setup that works I also don't want to leave you researching everything from point 0. We switched to FreeBSD loader since the last time you upgraded. We follow Upstream quite tightly so anything that works on freebsd should work with OI. It seems that Freebsd loader can boot Windows but you will need to checkout what Configuration you can and need to set. You can find a list of all the configuration options under /boot/loader.help Alternatively you could testout UEFI setup. You should have an UEFI boot partition If you installed Windows First on the Device. Under boot we now have two efi binaries under /boot. "/boot/loader32.efi" and "/boot/loader64.efi" depending on how castrated your UEFI Motherboard setup screen is you should be able to just copy the one apropriate to your architecture to the EFI Partition and boot it from the BIOS Boot menu. AFAIK It is still quite Beta (meaning tsoome is working on it and I haven't gotten the chance to test it) but it should work If I interpreted his heads up mail on the ML correctly. Hope this helps you a bitt getting Dual-Boot Working. We are curious to see how you manage it as It is something I definetly would like to document.
