What would be the best configuration for running FreeBSD 1.1.5.1 on IDE
and DOS/Windows/Linux on a SCSI disk? Problem: I have FreeBSD already
installed on two IDE drives (C: and D:).

The controller is an EIDE/SCSI-2 (SIDE) VLB controller.

Is it possible at all to run DOS on a SCSI drive while disks C: and D:
are occupied by something else?

Which bootloader would be best suited? (booteasy, OS2-..?)

Any suggestions welcome.
