Hi, I have this problem. I was using FreeBSD 5.1 along with Windows XP for a while. I had to re-install Windows for some reasons. Before the re-installation, I was using the dual boot system from FreeBSD (the one with which you have to choose with the "F" keys the OS you want to boot). But when I re-installed Windows, the MBR seems to be reseted so that now, I can only boot Windows (even if my FreeBSD is still on my machine, because I re-installed Windows on the same partition it was). Is there a way, with the FreeBSD CD or something, to re-initialise the MBR so that I can see both FreeBSD and Windows (or to be like when you install a fresh copy of FreeBSD after installing it after Windows )? Thanks, Eric __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Read only the mail you want - Yahoo! Mail SpamGuard. http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail
