One question, he has assumed that we are going to put WinXP and FreeBSD on the same drive so in his setup config he has: #this is the name that will appear on the boot menu title FreeBSD #this is where the root (/) system is installed #master disk 1, partition 2 slice a root (hd0,1,a) #how to boot the above system kernel /boot/loader title Windows XP root (hd0,0) Would I change that to: #this is the name that will appear on the boot menu title FreeBSD #this is where the root (/) system is installed #master disk 1, partition 2 slice a root (hd1,0,a) #how to boot the above system kernel /boot/loader title Windows XP root (hd0,0) Thanks for the info.
