hiya.

I have 2 disks(/drives). One installed with windows XP, and one with
Freebsd. During the installation of freeBSD I choose yes to bootmanager, and
made the drive bootable.

However, when I power-on my computer, it simply starts windows XP and no
bootmanager at all!

A friendly user on IRC gave me the suggestion the bootmanager was probably
installed on the freebsd disk, and not on the windows XP disk which
assumingly is the 'boot drive'. And thus I went looking for a flag in the
bios to set the 'boot drive' to the freebsd disk.

And which of course failed. And now I'm desperately wondering what to do...
Any help would be appreciated!


Thanks in advance!
