First off, I left the FreeBSD boot manager out of the picture. I used the bootpart utility (http://www.winimage.com/bootpart.htm) to automagically get my boot.ini set up correctly for the windows boot loader so that FreeBSD is now listed as an option. Then I set FreeBSD to be the default and the countdown to 11 seconds from the original 30. :) -- Robin Schoonover <end@endif.cjb.net> <endx7@users.sf.net> <robin.schoonover@gmail.com> # Oh wow!
