X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.7 [en] (WinNT; I) X-Accept-Language: en MIME-Version: 1.0 To: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org Subject: FreeBSD 3.4 Installation Clue-Losses Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org My cluelessness begins when I need to choose a partition for FreeBSD. I have prepared a partition for FreeBSD with PartitionMagic (hdb10). However, when I bring up the menu screen for my second hard drive (hdb), hdb10 is not a choice for installation. (I know, hdb10 is labeled differently in FreeBSD but the equivalent name.) I am most eager to use the reputable OS and experience what it can do for me, can you direct me to a reference on Managing Partions under FreeBSD?
