Hi,
as a long time Linux user I'll test FreeBSD, because I've got issues
with my sound card on Linux. I'm already subscribed to FreeBSD
multimedia.
Perhaps later today I'll install 9.0 amd64. If possible I'll keep my
Linux GRUB legacy. Can I use my menu.lst [1] and add a chainloader or
something

I don't know if GRUB v1 allows that, on a multiboot
While no expert, I would advise against running the kernel directly.
The loader allows you to boot in single user which may come handy at times.

Thank you Damien, Lucas and Juergen :)
btw. the off topic on multimedia is my bad, I wasn't subscribed to
FreeBSD questions.

You need to install boot0cfg in your MBR

can use any MBR loader you like (grub, lilo, boot0cfg, windows). Windows
can't access boot sector on

Well, this is a different way to do it, usually this is used with
Microsuck products... but I suppose it'd work here too.
If you chainload you don't need UFS

Grub does well for me. Set it up for Linux and then set it up for
BSD, making sure the UFS driver's in there. Here's my command-list

before you installed FreeBSD. You have to boot Linux from floppy or CD now
once; then you have to install lilo into the Linux root partition. After
that, you should be able to boot your Linux system by the FreeBSD boot

hi
i have a mandrax linux 9.2 installed on a IBM ThinkPad
24x, but now I can't boot it after I install FBSD 5.2.
I can still see the FBSD boot manager displaying F1 F2
for the two linux partitions, but they can't be
booted.
