To my knowledge, FreeBSD can be booted with almost any other OS. Although I and many other people have problems with the FreeBSD booteasy bootloader, after installing FreeBSD onto a disk with win2000, the menu to boot loader will look sonething similar to this: F1: ??? F2: FreeBSD I do not know how to get rid of the ???, and have not been provided with an answer. You can use the win2000 boot loader to boot FreeBSD too. Overall, FreeBSD will work together with Win2000. Nick To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
