Firstly, freebsd can see NTFS, but not write to it.
You need to partition up your hard drive, 1 for windows, and several for FreeBSD (Read more in the Handbook).
I have them on two seperate hard disks, and use the 'gag' bootloader on my
primary drive, with windows 2000, which will reconises both partitions and
loads the appropriate one.FreeBSD's bootmanager can boot both win2000 and FreeBSD. You only have to install in on the master boot record (MBR) - the installation menu will ask for it.
Apologies for my lack of Russian.
Win2000's bootloader can boot FreeBSD, and FreeBSD's bootloader can boot Win2000. See <URL: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859- 1/books/faq/disks.html#NT-BOOTLOADER> and <URL: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install- steps.html>, section 2.5.4.
