FreeBSD booting question
« on: 22 August 2002, 06:05 »
I've been considering putting FreeBSD on my machine. I'm currently running WinME and SUSE 8.0 and would like to know if I should stick with LILO for booting all three or use whatever comes with FreeBSD.

use lilo, and to boot FreeBSD, the kernel is

/boot/loader

trust me on that on, if you set up lilo to boot that, youll do fine

its really not the kernel, it will boot the freebsd kernel.
