Hi gang,

I've got FreeBSD 2.1.5 on my Thinkpad 755CX, and I have the need to
boot to Win95 dos before I go into FreeBSD so I can run an IBM
driver to enable the enhanced video so I can get 800x600 within 
X Windows.

Is there any way I can boot into Win95 DOS and then fire up FreeBSD
without rebooting? I have heard about loadlin for Linux -- is 
there an equivalent for FreeBSD? And how do I set it up?

Thanks in advance,
/rickt
