Look into the tools/ directory on the CDROM.  booteasy is a simple
separate DOS tool that can be installed from there.  Its only relation
to FreeBSD is that we found it worthwhile enough to provide it as a
default boot selector, in order to support people with the desire of
switching between more than one operating system on their disks.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
