Justin,

I use the following to dual boot Win2K/FreeBSD (FreeBSD being=
 installed on a 2d HDD):

1) when you setup FreeBSD make sure you do not install any boot=
 manager
2) make sure both your Win2K and FreeBSD partitions are set to=
 "bootable"
3) download Bootpart from www.winimage.com. It will scan your=
 disks for the FreeBSD boot sector and create a boot file that=
 you can for example name bootsect.bsd
4) edit your boot.ini file and add the following line:
C:\bootsect.bsd=3D"FreeBSD" 

Next time you restart you will have the choice of the OS's you=
 want to use.

However Win2K is not mentionned on Bootpart site it works fine=
 for me.

Of course make sure you backup you boot.ini before changing=
 it...

Anne
