Hi,

Sorry for this novice question ....

I would like to install FreeBSD on a secondary (slave) hard disk.
Here is my configuration :

First disk (500 MB) : primary (Master) hard disk with DOS installed.
Second Disk (2500 MB) : Secondary (Slave) disk.

I would like to install FreeBSD on the first 500 MB of the 
second disk, and the remaining of the 2nd disk would be
an extended DOS partition.

I have tried this configuration, but my PC always boots on the
DOS partition of the first disk.

Is this configuration completely stupid ? Or is there a way
to run it.

Any help, any information would be appreciated....
Please would you mind answering directly to :
 christine.duchaine@wanadoo.fr

Thanks you

Sincerely

Christine
