I just installed FreeBSD 2.0.5 on my system. I have 2 IDE Hard drives 
(450 and 210) and installed Freebsd on the 210. The 450 is a DOS drive. 
The 210 is the master while the 450 is the slave. When I boot up (I 
installed the included bootmanager) It tells me to press F1 for BSD or F5 
for dos. My problem is that I can't get onto my dos HD using the 
bootmanager (I temporarily use a boot disk in A:). When I press F5 to get 
into DOS, it just goes ahead and loads up FreeBSD. I would GREATLY 
appreciate ANY help concerning this matter. Please email me at 
ednegari@soho.ios.com.
