Hi:

I=92ve had this problem a few times before, but usually overcome it by
luck most of the time. I have Win2k installed currently, then I set
up FreeBSD, I partition the main HD, to include both systems on the
same disk, and I make the FreeBSD partition bootable (active). When I
restart the box, and see an option such as:

F1. DOS
F3. FreeBSD
F5. ???

The F1 key works to boot windows, but when F3 is hit, the result is
this:

F3: ?%&@

It does not boot, just beeps. Then I hit F3 again to go back to the
Main menu and boot to windows ok. What is causing this to happen?

I would also like to get rid of the F5 option with ???, how can I do
this?

Please help. Thank you.

Nick Lozinsky
