But now I can't boot into it ! I believe it run allright at the final stage of the installation. The problem is that I have Linux and Lilo installed on my first HD and I need to have both systems working, for a while, in order to migrate from Linux. The best would be if I could create a Lilo stanza that boots freeBSD, but booting from a floppy would be acceptable. However, I don't know how to create a FreeBSD boot floppy that doesn't insist on making a new installation.
