I got freebsd up and running on the same disk, though in a different partition, as the one I'm running Win95 on. The problems I had were as follows: 1. I exited the installation process before it copied the binaries. 2. I hadn't marked the freebsd partition as bootable. Perhaps instructions under novice installation need to be added here, with reassurance that this won't cause Win95 to become non-bootable. 3. Other than that, installation was pretty easy (even though I had to upload it all at 14.4k). Thanks to everyone, Paul Missman P.S. One question - does anyone know when ppp for COM4 might be added? Else, I will have to disable my COM1 and move my modem.
