I am trying to get vmware2 to load my pre-existing windows2000
partition under FreeBSD4.2.
I copied the mbr to a file and set up a plain disk configuration.
When vmware starts, it loads the mbr which has booteasy on it. I
select the windows partition and then immediately get the following:
NTLDR is missing
Press any key to restart
That same process works fine outside of vmware. Can someone point me
in the right direction?
Here is my plain disk configuration and the output of fdisk:
win2000.hda:
