how to make a boot floppy after installation for freebsd

[mr orion77]

i dont want freebsd writing over my win mbr and i'd like to use a floppy to boot but sadly i cant figure out how;)

ie i dont want to make an install floppy but a boot floppy.

freebsd uses a loader to boot, whether its on a floppy or your hd, the only difference is when you compile your own kernel, or use the freebsd boot disk to boot, my advice is to just use a standard grub boot disk to boot it

you will need to create the boot disk, boot to it and at the command specify where the root parition from freebsd is and where its loader is, then just boot it
