Here is my question: I recently got a new machine, pentium II 266 etc... with a 5 GB hard drive. It was (and still) is my intention to split the hard drive roughly in half and run win95 (yuk) on one half and freeBSD on the other. Here is the problem: when I run the freeBSD repartitioning utility FIPS it bombs. I'm assuming because I am running have a 32bit filesystem such that win95 can deal with the 5GB drive. Do you have any suggestions on how I can work around this? -- Gavin D.
