Hi...

perhapes this is a FAQ, but i am stuck with a problem.

I do have 2 IDE-drives in my 486-machine. On the 1. there is my DOS and 
Windows stuff, on the second there is NetBSD. The Problem is, that i can not
boot from the 2nd drive. So for the moment i only connect the drive i want to
boot from. 
Is there a possibility to boot NetBSD from the second IDE-drive, for example
with a special boot disk?

Thanks in advance,


Michael
