I performed the following procedure:

Install WindowsNT 3.51 on lone IDE drive.  No problem, works fine.
Install DOS 6.22 and FreeBSD on a *different* lone IDE drive. 
Install booteasy on DOS/FreeBSD drive. I am able to choose between OSs.
Make DOS/FreeBSD drive the master and WindowsNT drive the slave.
Run bootinst.  It sees the HPFS partition and claims to install
successfully.

So now DOS works fine, FreeBSD works fine, but when I hit the "disk2" option
and then "F1" for HPFS, the computer freezes.  

Any ideas?

TIA.

Marco
