Well, I got nervess, and I wanted to know more. So I looked a little in www.freebsd.org. I still got some questions though. 1) I want to use windows nt workstation(for office and stuff) and FreeBSD. is this possible? Because I heart FreeBSD has to be on the primary partition. And because of lack of time, I'm not going to reinstall nt again. So is it possible to install FreeBSD on an extended partition? 2) As a complete quake2 addict, I want to know if I can play quake2 on FreeBSD. I read somewhere that there are Compatibility modules for linux and other OS'. Quake2 runs excellent on linux, but does that also count for freeBSD and also in the opengl video mode? 3)Four of my five partitions have NTFS filesystem on it, the other is just FAT. Can I still use these NTFS partitions under freeBSD, or do I have to create FAT partitions to use the files in both nt and FreeBSD? Well, that's it. Hope to get some answers to these questions!!
