... i would be the happiest man in the world!
I am going crazy. It simply does not boot directly from the partition
when i spare too many of them.
If someone could, please guys, help me i would send you some bears.
With the following set up everything works ok:
fdisk:

But this one does prevent me from booting.

I don't have the smallest ideia about what i going wrong! The
installation procedure was just like the same expect for disklabel
partitions.
Please, some one in the name of God, if could give some light on this
matter, i would appreciate a lot.
BTW: if you have a Dell Precision WS 370 i see no problem charing your
disk layout with me i would be glad too.
Thanks a lot for all your time and patience.
