Hi Malcolm,
Thank you so much for replying. I did what you said
and I got the following:
F1 FreeBSD
F5 Drive 1
When I press F5, I get:
FreeBSD/i386 BOOT
Default: 0:ad0(0,a)/boot/loader
boot: _
What do I type at the boot: prompt to get windows?
Thanks
Saccheen

Hi,
I am a newbie to FreeBSD. I have a Pentium 3, 5oo
IBM
computer that I put two hard drives in. I added a
4.3G
hard drive (master) and an 80G hard drive (slave).
Initially, windows XP was installed on both hard
drives.
Last night, I decided to install FreeBSD 4.10 on
the
4.3G hard drive and keep windows on the 80G.
Anyway,
after I installed FreeBSD, I couldn't gain any
access
to Windows XP on the 80G hard drive. What
happened? Do
I have to reinstall windows? Is there a way to set
the
BIOS so that I can boot from a particular
operating
system?
Also, a second question-I have tried to access the
BIOS by typing different combinations of Fs and
ALT-CTRL-INS and I am unable to access my BIOS.
Help!
If you go back to the FreeBSD installation and
install
the boot manager on the MBR of the master you should
get
a message offering F1 for FreeBSD or F5 for the next
drive;
ie when you next boot.

In addition to the above, is there a way to "edit" the boot menu?
