Greetings! Thanks to all who responded with suggestions as to how to install= a bootloader. Well, nothing is working. I have WinXP on my first= hard drive. I have installed FreeBSD 4.7 on the second hard drive.= It's installed,but the part of the install that should install the bootmanager needs to be rewritten, IMHO. Sorry to say this, but= Linux does the bootloader much better. I find the instructions very confusing. I really want to give Free BSD a chance, but if I= can't get it to load with the boot loader, then it doesn't matter. So,= is there any way I can install a bootloader on the WinXP drive= without reinstalling FreeBSD. Does no good to reinstall because it's= always the same problem. I've checked the docs, the mailing lists, but= with no specific answer. Somebody needs to clarify the boot loader= install for people like me. :-) Thanks for anything, except "get it right, stupid." :-))))) Regards, Mike keeper@neo.rr.com
