It doesn't matter which you install first, but whatever you do, use grub for the bootloader- It's way easier then the freebsd version...  Also, make sure that there's no mca bus stuff in there-- Definitely does not play well with freebsd.

Hello, I have a project that I'm working on and am in need of some advice. 
 
I have an old IBM PC Server 310, I have 2 scsi cards installed. The first card has 3 hdd's and scsi cd-rom. This card & drives I would like to install Mandrake 7.0 on. 
 
The other card has no cd-rom but 4 drives on it, I would like to install FreeBSD on this other set of drives. 
 
Is it possible? 
 
Should I install FreeBSD first then Mandrake? 
 
Will lilo can come up with a boot menu, so I can boot into Mandrake or FreeBSD?
 
I bought a book on eBay for $4 The Complete FreeBSD, 3rd edition. By Greg Lehey Pub: Walnut Creek. (NEW) It has 4 cd-rom's with FreeBSD 4.6 
 
Any advice or information would be a help.
 
Thanks, Ron
