Explanation

Although every effort is made to create accurate instructions, sometimes the need for adjustment comes after a version of the handbook has been published. It is hoped that those changes are few and occur seldom. Here is where errors, omissions, and other changes or improvements will be recorded, organized by title and version.

PC-BSD Handbook

Beginning with PC-BSD® version 8.2, a PDF of the Users Handbook matching the released version is included as an icon on the PC-BSD® desktop. In addition, the Users Handbook is published in various formats as listed below. Translations of the Handbook are added as they become available and any downloadable file name will indicate the language with a 2-letter ISO code. If you are interested in translating a released version of the documentation, send an email to the PC-BSD® translations mailing list.

  • For those who prefer a "dead tree" version of the Handbook, the book version as well as a book and DVD bundle are available from FreeBSD Mall. The ISBN for the book is 1-57176-398-8.

4.5 Dual Booting


4.5.3.1 Adding PC-BSD to Legacy GRUB


* Root: The root of the partition containing PC-BSD. In the above example, PC-BSD is installed on the first hard disk (hd0) and on the first partition (,1). Start counting your hard disk from zero (e.g. disk 0 for the first hard disk, disk 1 for the second hard disk) and your partition from one (e.g. 1 for the first partition on that disk, 2 for the second partition, etc.)

4.5.3.2 Adding PC-BSD to GRUB Version 2


If you are trying to dual-boot with GRUB2 under Fedora 16, run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg as the superuser.


If you are trying to dual-boot with GRUB2 under Fedora 16 or Gentoo, run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg as the superuser (Please note that if using Sabayon, you need to use grub-mkconfig instead of grub2-mkconfig).
