Looking for some reccommendations on how to handle the boot manager: use NT's or FreeBSDs? (NT was on the machine first, and it's boot manager is presently installed in the boot partition.) S. I haven't looked at it lately, but about 6 months ago I found this web page a very useful reference. I used its information to get DOS/Win 3.1, NT, Win95 and FreeBSD to all coexist on 2 SCSI disks in a Pentium-90 system. http://www.owlnet.rice.edu/~sedmison/directboot.html -- Deborah Gronke Bennett System Software Engineer, IOS Technology deborah@cisco.com (408)-526-4000 Cisco Systems 170 West Tasman Dr., San Jose, CA 95134-1706
