I have Windows NT and Linux on my first hard drive, I am using the Windows NT boot loader to load the OS. I have tried all three boot options during the FreeBSD installation, none of them worked. Could someone give me a hand, telling me step by step how to make it work. I am trying to install FreeBSD on my second hard drive, which is empty. It seems there are a lot more Linux users than FreeBSD users. Now I kind know why this happend. No support for ATAPI CDROM, hard to install.... .... Wondering if I can return my cdrom. -Dong
