I'm trying to get BootEasy 1.7 to work..

Primary Drive - DOS
Secondary Drive - NetBSD

I want to use BootEasy to either boot the DOS drive or the NetBSD drive. 
B.E. detects the partition ID on the DOS drive as #1.
B.E. detects the partition ID on the NetBSD drive as #4.

I go ahead with the install.  And on boot up, the DOS drive will bootup
fine.  But the NetBSD drive does not.  It just spins the drive and 
keeps cycling through the menu upon keypress.  Any ideas on how to get
this to boot?

Thank you,

John Herndon
