What doesn't work? I had no problems using it with OS/2 and 386BSD.
First, have boot manager and OS/2 installed, leave room for a 386BSD
partition. Then install 386BSD on this free space. Reboot into OS/2
and use FDISK (or FDISKPM) there to add the 386BSD partition to the
boot manager menu (give it a name too).
