I would like not to have to pay for a partition/boot management product if I can help it; I would boot off of floppy first, but I can't seem to find instructions anywhere on how to create a custom boot floppy. Are there such instructions anywhere? I'll happily RTFM, if I can find the FM. There doesn't seem to be anything in the Handbook. W2k and FreeBSD have separate disks to themselves, and both are located below this mysterious 1024 cylinder boundary. Does that make a difference? My work system is FreeBSD (4.0-STABLE) so I have access to a box to futz with (the FreeBSD installation at home is inaccessible.) Thanks again, (jfb) -- My fellow Americans. As a young boy, I dreamed of being a baseball, but tonight I say, we must move forward, not backward, upward not forward, and always twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom.
