I recently installed 5.1-RELEASE - I was previously using 5.0.
When I had 5.0, I could easily boot FBSD from GRUB using these settings
in my Linux's /boot/grub/menu.lst file:
title FreeBSD
root (hd0,1,a)
kernel /boot/loader

These settings no longer work, and I get an error me

If that is the only reason to use grub, try osbsbeta.exe that is in the

Hello,
A simple question. Does the bootloader grub work well with FreeBSD ?
I see it in the ports, but it does not appear on the advertised list of
OS'es it can support as far as I can see. If anyone uses it out there
can they say if there are any "gotcha's" please.
