Hi, this is T.Furuya. I have the problem connecting to this problem of booteasy. In Message-ID: <96369668.35cdcbc1@aol.com> DukOnALake@aol.com wrote: > Hi, > > I sucessfully (I guess) installed FreeBSD on wd3 with DOS on wd0 and > wd1, gave FreeBSD the WHOLE third drive (No slice reserved for another OS). > How do I install booteasy and have it recognize wd3? It installs, but just > gives me one option (F1) which is DOS. I have installed my kernel second SCSI disk. I am successfully boot up from second drive by booteasy pressing F5 key. But accidentally, I erased booteasy. So, I have reinstalled booteasy by /stand/sysinstall, custom, partition, And wrote booteasy to the first and the second drive respectively. But when booting from first drive, there is no menu of F5. Nevertheless I press F5, booteasy on the second drive boots up and invodes kernel, and things go well. This seems very queer to me. Is this bug on booteasy ? So, you should boot up kernel by hand by floppy or by typing 0:wd(2,a)kernel (? I am not confident of this parameter.) to 'boot:' prompt, and call /stand/sysinstall. You should read FreeBSD-Handbook or FAQ on this /stand/sysinstall and partition-w. See http://www.freebsd.org/.
