Yep, just be sure to install the boot manager on the first drive. E.g. visit the first drive and make NO changes to it in the Partition editor, simply select the boot manager when it comes up. After that, visit the 2nd drive and partition it for FreeBSD (e.g. DO make changes to that one and create a FreeBSD partition on it). -- - Jordan Hubbard President, FreeBSD Project
