I can even add, because I 've just done it and I'm a total newbie, that FreeBSD makes it very easy. I read a lot of thing before which confused maybe about the 1024th cylinder, lilo, loadlin etc...well FreeBSD ask you during the install process if you want to select its boot manager: you just have to select it, and then it works wether your FreeBSD partition is after the 528MB limit or not... so don't be scare ! -----Original Message----- From: Frank Pawlak Date: Thursday, April 02 1998 0:53 Subject: Re: Windows 95 Wesley Potter <W.Potter@wigan-leigh.ac.uk> wrote: > Can FreeBSD Be run on a pc with windows 95 on it and then will it > still > be possible to access and boot into windows 95 after installation?? > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message Yes. Install Win95 before you install FreeBSD. Install the FreeBSD boot manager in the MBR. FreeBSD's boot manager will give you the choice to boot Win95 or FreeBSD.
