I have GRUB boot from the i386-FreeBSD partition which is the first on the disk.
Makes it very easy to get the repair-CD and find the first / to repair the
bootsector when MS has again threaded over it.

Getting it to boot 8 OS-es is not as far as I got, because I've not started
experimenting with extended partition. I've got 3 primaries, 1 extended.
