Win95 and FreeBSD will happily Coexist on the same machine. When you install FreeBSD you can install the boot manager Booteasy so you'll have your choice at startup which system to run. You will have to clear some disk space for FreeBSD though, I suggest you go to www.freebsd.org and look at the handbook for help before you begin. I would also suggest doing a search on the mail archives for Win95 coexistiance and your hardware...there's a wealth of information there. Have Fun! Michael G. ---------- From: Surya Avantsa[SMTP:suryava@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, December 18, 1997 4:48 PM To: freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Hi First of all, let me thank you for providing me an opportunity to work on UN*X after several years. I have a computer at home with Win95 installed on it. If I install FreeBSD on it, does it mean I cannot work on win95 and its programs ? Or is it possible that I can log in to the BSD UN*x or Win'95 as per my choice without affecting the programs on the Win'95 front ? I would appreciate an early reply. Thanking you in advance Regards Surya V. Avantsa suryava@hotmail.com ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
