is it possible to install 4.10 and 5.3 on a single system? i'm need them
for testing a various times but i've only got the one system for them both.
i tried myself, but i ended up with getting not ufs error msg after
the boot prompt, it did show 2 freebsd options however.
Yes that should be possible, but be aware that FreeBSD 4.x cannot read the
UFS2 filesystem, which is the default for 5.3. Therefore the 4.x boot loader
cannot boot 5.3, probably that's the problem you are seeing.
Try reinstalling the boot loader using the 5.3 CD.
