Boot Loaders (was Re: [ILUG] Re: Newbie question)

Boot Loaders (was Re: [ILUG] Re: Newbie question)

I've been looking for a boot loader to dual boot Win9* and OpenBSD, as so
far, I have only been able to use the boot disk to boot OpenBSD,
(fortunately it's uptimes are great, so it's needed very rarely - but it's
still annoying when I have to do it). OpenBSD comes supplied with a boot
loader, but it doesnt like the fact that OBSD is on a second drive, so it
pukes. So, could anyone recommend one?

Thanks,

- John
