Hi all,
	I have DOS, NT 4.0 and FreeBSD on my system. FreeBSD was 
installed after DOS and NT 3.51 after it. Meanwhile I have upgraded my
NT to 4.0 Everything was fine till I upgraded to NT 4.0 which sometimes
use to screw up booting. ( Comp.usually hangs. I have to switch off
and start again. ) After this I ran Auto SCSI and set default factory
settings and everything worked fine. BUT now BSD seems to be dead. I
can't boot to BSD since it tells me there is no driver assigned. It
seems to detect everything but fails to boot. It does detect my
BusLogic ( which is BT-948 ) scsi adapter but says Panic ... Can not
mount root. Also now when I try to reinstall it says there are not
hard disks. Can anybody help me resolve this mess ??? 

Also now if I want to get rid of this BSD what shall I do ? I have boot
manager installed so if I delete this partition, what will happen to
startup menu ??? How do I get rid of it ?? I can't say "sys c:" because
my NT 4.0 starts from here. 

Please help.


Thanx in advance.
