Hi,
Are there any issues in booting FreeBSD using NTLDR? My machine has
Windows XP, Fedora Core 3, and FreeBSD-5.3, and while I know I can use
GRUB to boot FreeBSD, I want to try booting it using NTLDR. Just for
kicks -- its something I haven't tried so far. :))

No, boot0 is just a normal file that is 512 bytes long. There is
nothing special about it. In it is a bootloader program that can be
used to boot FreeBSD, and if you run it during boot, it will read the
partition table and look for all OSes. I think it will modify the
partition table,
is that option (b) copies boot0 to the MBR, and this
that is what I had chosen while installing FreeBSD. How does one copy
boot0 to a file using sysinstall??
