I have FreeBSD installed on two primary slices of my machine, as you
can see from the df(1) output below. I can boot FreeBSD fine, if I
copy the boot record of the slice my root partition lives in:
# df /
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Avail Capacity Mounted on
/dev/ad0s1a 498078 85920 372312 19% /
# dd if=/dev/ad0s1 of=/root/bsdboot.bin bs=512 count=1
Then copy bsdboot.bin to a Windows partition, say in C:\BSDBOOT.BIN
and add the following to the C:\BOOT.INI file:
C:\BSDBOOT.BIN="FreeBSD on ad0s1"
That should be all...
Giorgos.
