I pieced my computer together and couldn't be happier. I think you'll find that a lot of people on this list did the same. Anyway, to answer you question. When you boot with the boot floppy or CD-ROM, the first configuration screen you get to is fdisk. Just delete the FAT partition and create a FBSD partition.
