It has the OS-BS boot manager installed. When I installed Windows 95 (in the DOS Partition), it wiped out the OS-BS boot manager. Is there any way to reinstall it without trashing the NetBSD partition (which I never touched). Is there any boot manager that I could install into it's own partition to avoid these problems next time? I think that 95 tramped on the OS-BS boot manager, which contained the starting block of NetBSD on the second partition. Any info. on this would be very much appreciated, Bob
