Hi, Cecil

try this links, they may help:

http://www.packetwatch.net/documents/guides/misc/multi-boot.php

another solution to use boot.ini windows loader http://pages.cpsc.ucalgary.ca/~gaoj/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/FreeBSD/ BootByOSLoader

if you want to dual boot

restore windows with IBM restore CDs and then move/resize windows partition, then install freebsd, install freebsd boot sector NOT in to Master boot, but to partition

you should be good to go.

any way this is wrong list for this type of questions, please use 'generic questions'

Good Luck

Hello all,

I would like to build a dual boot ThinkPad r40 with Free 6.2 and win2k. I tried installing win2k first and modifing the boot.ini and got a dead win install. Finally, I install Free6.2 first after the free install I got boot options F1 and F2 then installed Win2K on a NTFS partition on the second partition same disk. The Win install boot without options, I booted the free CD and made the Free partition active now win is not seen. HELP!!!
