Whatever works for you, the downside of this is that the config file
is saved on the filesystem, not the MBR, so if you do the right thing
and remove windows from your PC then you'll have to get another
bootmanager anyway....
hadn't thought of that, that's a drawback.. but only in case you
remove windows and install some other os, am I right?
I had trouble with the dual boot OS before editing the windows boot.ini
I have 2 partitions on my laptop --on the first i've installed fbsd
WITH the bootMNG (grub) and on the second partition i post-installed
winXP. winXP overwrote the mbr and grub did not work. So when the
machine booted only winXP started and I had no option to log to my
fbsd..that's why i edited the boot.ini
To use grub now should I edit the conf file of grub?
thank you for the suggestion
