Default MBR manager to let choose between windows and netbsd

I already had in the past troubles using the standart MBR manager coming with netbsd, and I ain't enough of a poweruser to config GRUB on my own, so I am wondering how I will make a dual boot between a preinstalled windows, and netbsd 7.
I have enough free space saved.

And most of all, I fear that if I install right away NBSD, I'll lost right away access to windows by changing the MBR.
Do you think what works here https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/d...ndows-7.14222/ will work for NBSD ?
I got depressed when I saw such a tool existed(easyBSD) but for FreeBSD. You think it would work the same ? Installing netbsd in the free space, without touching the boot record, then using easybsd as it was freebsd ?
