I have installed 5.2.1 into a partition and I want to use my existing bootloader, grub.

Can anyone tell me what the required grub configuartion line would look like, or point me to an FAQ?

I'm actually using a GRUB floppy, but this is what I type in to boot freeBSD (it's on the second IDE drive in my system)

GRUB> root (hd1,0)
GRUB> chainloder +1
GRUB> boot

in the first line, (hd1,0) refers to the HDD and the partition, in that order. So if you have only one drive, and BSD is on the second partiton, for example, you'd use "root (hd0,1)"

Hope this helps...
