I haven't yet been able to get booteasy or os-bs to
boot from multiple hard drives, they seem to be
designed to boot from multiple partitions on the same
drive. Booteasy always complains that it cannot find
the non-NetBSD OS on the other hard drive, so I am
probably doing something wrong.
Does anyone else boot from multiple hard drives?
