If you stop xdm from starting, I'm pretty sure you can just start kdm 
from wherever you want. When I last had it installed I just had a short 
script in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ that started it for me.

Windows partitions can be mounted with a command like 'mount_msdos 
/dev/ad0s1 /mnt'. Check out your boot messages to find out what your 
device is likely to be, and also check 'man mount_msdos' for more 
information.
