I have win98 and Mandrake 7.1 installed and am using GRUB to dual boot the lot and all is dandy. Now i want to install FreeBSD and would like to know what i have to add to get it to triple boot if at all possible...Grub is installed on my MBR..i can also use LILO if need be...any IDEAS ?

I haven't used Grub but I do know you can with LILO or the FreeBSD boot manager. Just follow the existing pattern for the existing partitions and add the partition for fbsd.
