Hello,

I have 2 disks on my computer, the first one with FreeBSD (HD0) and
the second one (HD1)with WindowsXP.
I want to set a multiboot tool for my 2 operating systems.

So, can I install FreeBSD to manage my two diferents OS with a F1 and
F2 menu ?

I did this operation with a single disk with windows98 and FreeBSD but
I don't know if it's possible with 2 diferents disks and os.

Thanks in advance.
