Hello, I need some help in setting up a multiboot environment with FreeBSD, WinME, and WinXP. I have separate disks available to be dedicated to each operating system. I have been running a dual-boot system with FreeBSD-WinME for some time with no problems. When I bought a new machine, it came with WinXP with lots of bells and whistles. I installed FreeBSD 4.6 on one of the extra disks, and I have been running a dual-boot FreeBSD and WinXP system for about a week. Certain critical Windows applications just plain don't work under WinXP, and the NTFS drivers in FreeBSD apparently support reading but not writing of NTFS file systems mounted under FreeBSD. I have become quite used to being able to read and write FAT32-based files directly from FreeBSD. Hence, I decided to try to go the triple-boot route. Any suggestions, Thanks in advance Brian -- Brian M.
