I was able to dual boot win7 and freebsd 8 without any problem, just
installed windows first and installed freebsd with the freebsd boot
manager and it said F1 windows and the rest are FreeBSD

I am attempting to avoid having to reinstall the fb side of things ;-)

I am about to go out and buy windows 7 to replace my vista partition... when

after install)... namely I had to allow windows to nuke my mbr then use
EasyBCD to remake it in such a way that vista would still find it's "magic"
bytes in the mbr... does anyone know if win 7 has any similar issues and/or
any other weirdness in reguards to dual booting?

Completely side question I use sysutils/fusefs-ntfs to mount my vista
partition do I need to change anything in my /etc/rc.d/* hierachy and/or
/etc/fstab  after installing win 7 (I use a direct call to ntfs-3g instead
of via the mount patch [which doesn't work on 8.0-XXX it seems {I am on RC2
right now}]?
