I have a pc, which I need to run both dos and fbsd. Is it possible to alter the default system, the machine boots with, instead of "press F1 for Dos, F3 for FreeBSD", so I have to be around? I want to from a cronjob say "set_next_boot_to dos", then reboot. Then from dos, I can't run fbsdboot, because of some resident drivers. So there I want to from an event do "set_next_boot_to freebsd" Well, that could be arranged by clever moving of conflict.sys and autoexec.bat, and then doing fbsdboot... But as said: can the default startup-system from the booteasy be controlled from fbsd and/or dos? Leif Neland leifn@image.dk --- |Fidonet: Leif Neland 2:234/49 |Internet: leifn@image.dk
