Hello there!
Before installing FreeBSD onto this machine, I installed Windows XP on a ~130GB partition on my one and only hard disk. Later on I installed FreeBSD on the remaining free space, about 320GB. Both systems are installed now, but I can only boot FreeBSD, Windows XP is being totally ignored.
I tried installing GAG (http://gag.sourceforge.net/) before, but my floppy drive seems to be damaged. Before, I studied this article: http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=28925 and I just wanted to know if booting from the FreeBSD install disc, using the shell and entering
is enough to automatically install a boot loader which lets me boot both XP and FreeBSD?
If not, how do I have to this? Which boot loaders can you recommend?
Thank you in advance!
