Win7 was not pre-installed. I have three partitions, part1(c:) - NTFS part2(d:) - FAT32 part3 - UFS2, not visible to Win7, visible in Disk Management console as free space Win7 is installed on part1, part2 is data drive so that bot OSes can read/write do not want to use fusefs first install Win7, then FreeBSD, then boot in Win7 and use EasyBCD to add FreeBSD as another entry remember to advise FreeBSD to not touch MBR. have fun!! > > Tell me something - Which of the 3 FreeBSD boot manager options did you > select, please? don't let FreeBSD touch your MBR, Win7 won't like that > > Thanks! > > Regards, > > S Roberts > > >> > >> > Or, am I missing something? >> > >> > I noted that the link by the responder in the thread also refers to >> > a document that is based on windows vista, but will review this as >> > well. >> > >> > Thanks! >> > >> > Regards, >> > >> > S Roberts >> > >> > >> >> >> >> >> >> >> >> > Hello, >> >> > Sorry if this has been asked before, but can some point me to >> >> > where I can find info on installing FreeBSD-8 to a windows-7 >> >> > pre-installed machine (single disk) in a dual-boot set up, >> >> > please? >> >> > >> >> > Any assistance is appreciated. >> >> > >> >> > Thanks. >> >> > >> >> > Regards, >> >> > >> >> > S Roberts >> >> > _______________________________________________ >> >> > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list >> >> > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions >> >> > To unsubscribe, send any mail to >> >> > "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" >> >> > >> >> >> >> >> > _______________________________________________ >> > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list >> > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions >> > To unsubscribe, send any mail to >> > "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org" >> > > > _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
