Summary: Need to boot FreeBSD from D: disk, need boot manager 'boot-easy'
Keywords: boot manager, boot-easy, FreeBSD

Hi, I'm thinking about installing FreeBSD on my D disk and see from
the installation notes that I need a boot manager named
'boot-easy'. It says that this boot manager is in the tools
subdirectory of the FreeBSD distribution site, although it doesn't say
where that is. I found one at freebsd.cdrom.com but can't find any
tools subdirectory or the boot manager lurking about anywhere else on
that site. Anyone know where it is, or alternately, a boot manager that will
allow you to boot from the D disk?

Respond via email to daffer@kaiwan.com or in the news group if you
think the answer is of use the the rest of the world.

Thanks in advance.
