Priority: normal X-mailer: Pegasus Mail v3.22 Message-ID: Sender: owner-questions@freebsd.org Precedence: bulk Hi I have a DX2/66 with a 516 meg ide hard disk that has Windows 95 on a 90 Meg partition. I want to install both Linux and FreeBSD and I'm thinking about giving linux around 100 or so megs of disk and the rest to FreeBSD. I would like to use FreeBSD's boot manager as the boot manager for these OS's...but I'm not sure if it will allow you to boot three different OS's. I will mainly use FreeBSD..but I will need to get to windows95 at least once a day (to do some novell stuff), and I want to use Linux to experiment with. Anyway, I need some advice as to which OS to install first..Linux or FreeBSD, and what settings in the respective operating system's boot loader are needed to accomplish the above.
