it seems it's so common knowledge to achieve this,

So, I have a winxp hard disk at the end of a sata pci-card,
and freebsd harddisk straight in the motherboard ide connection.
So if both are connected, freebsd starts,
and if I take cabled off the freebsd harddisk, windows starts.
I cannot choose it from the bios that windows would make it first.
I think you can choose 'SCSI' in your BIOS. Although it is not a SCSI
controller it should work.
Secondly, I wouldn't want any gag or grub or any other "external" programs;
I'm quite sure freebsd's own bootloader can do it without problems.
Question remains: how? I vaguely remember I had done it before.
# sysctl kern.geom.debugflags=16 // make the MBR writable temporarily
# boot0cfg -B // install the boot0 boot loader
See also the manpage boot0cfg(8).
