I was able to setup all of BSD with no problems, disksetup, installsw, etc. The only problem that I have is that - even though - I said that I wanted multiple boot options DOS & BSD, my system goes straight into dos. I follow the instructions on the book that says that IF you want to use bootany you have to modify your booting options and I still get the problem. My question is, is there a way to modify the boot option after I installed BSD or do I have to install BSD again. (my PC boots from my first IDE (DOS) at the moment), and can I do this without reinstalling BSD ?? do I have to bootup from CD ?? or do I boot single user mode from the disk that I have BSD on ??. Thanks in advanced. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ___________ ( ) System Support Technologist ( ___ ) Information Technology ( ) (___) Sheridan College ( ) ___________ 1430 Trafalgar Rd, Oakville ON CA, L6H-2L1 ( ) ( ) Phone: 1-905-845-9430 Ext. 2130 ( ) (___ ___) Fax: 1-905-815-4011 ( ) ___ ( ) claudio.titichoca@sheridanc.on.ca ( )___( )( ) ( )( ) (___________)( ) " The world isn't run by weapons anymore Claudio ( ) or energy or money, it's run by little III ( ) 1's and 0's, little bits of data " Titichoca (___) -------------------------------------------------------------------------
