I'm on p. 48 of installing and running FreeBSD and I'm running into trouble
installing the boot manager.  The book doesn't show how to set it up with
multiple disks and multiple operating systems..

I have Windows 95 on my C drive, the whole drive is DOS.  My D drive is
partitioned into a D and an E drive, E is an extended partition. (All DOS)
with a FreeBSD partition in between the two.

C is the hard drive that is initially booted on startup.  So I'd imagine
that is where the boot manager would need to be.

Can you guide me as to how to proceed to install the boot manager?  I get a
bit skittish whenever dealing with master boot records..  (Had a bad
experience a while ago..)

Thanks.
