Several users in our BSD User Group are running NT on their first IDE disk
and FreeBSD on their second disk.  There were issues due to the
primary/slave IDE relationship, but FAQ 2.25 took care of those.  Now,
FreeBSD's boot manager shows first with NT showing as DOS; if DOS is
chosen, NT's boot manager is then displayed.

I'm not sure what will happen if you're going to get fancy and put FreeBSD
on both disks ?.... Good luck, and watch your syntax when using FAQ 2.25.
