Please!! X-URL: http://www.freebsd.org/support.html Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk I just got a release of FreeBSD, 2.2.1 I think it is. I was reading in the manual about installation and it says that since I have an EIDE hard disk that I should install BSD into the first 504MB of the drive. My problem is that I have Win95 on the first 2GB of my drive. Do I need to redo the whole disk with BSD first? Any pointers or bits of advice? I would really appreciate your help. If the info is needed, I have a 266Mhz Pentium II with 64 Megs RAM with 4GB drive. Please help!!!! Thanks in advance Carson Saunders casaunde@vt.edu
