Hi all,

I wanted to make my system dual or multiboot. I decided to loadding os NT
loader from Windows XP.

I have read this:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/disks.html#NT-BOOTLOAD
E R

[...]

If it is known issue, why it is not in documentation, that point 9.10 in
FAQ works ONLY and ONLY with ONLY 1 FreeBSD partition ?

I recommand to edit this question 9.10 to mention this barrier, if it is
true.


I did something similar even without reading man/FAQ and it works. My
situation is similar - first partition with WinXP, second, third and fourth
ones with various FreeBSD versions. There are some differences among files I
copied to C:\ directory of WinXP, however. So I think the problem is
elsewhere, most probably you did something not correctly.
If you like more help, contact me personally (use milan for local part of
address, however).
Regards,
Milan
