There was no choice in the matter but now I want to partition the drive and put prefferably FreeBSD 5.2 on it or at worst case some form of linux on it. Does anybody have any experience with this or a similar model ? Also what tools (preferable free since this is a one of event) have people used to partition a drive with an existing copy of windows XP installed ? Thanks for any help. Eric
