I have Win 95 and FreeBSD 3.0-Current installed on my computer. I have 2 hard drives installed with the Win95 OS on the "master" a 1.5G Western Digital and FreeBSD on the "slave" a 4.3G Quantum Bigfoot. The 4.3 is partitioned with about 2.5G of space for FreeBSD with the remaining space allocated to Win 95 programs. When I installed FreeBSD from the cd I created a "slice" so I could boot to either Win95 or FreeBSD i.e.: F1 DOS F5 FreeBSD Win95 crashed and I was forced to reinstall it, which I did without formatting so as not to mess up my boot partition or so I had hoped. To make a long story short, while I am still able to boot to FreeBSD and run it, I keep having problems that have just started since I reinstalled Win95. Problems are, when I do "make buildworld" in /usr/src , it crashes, but the errors are different everytime with the most popular error being cc: Internal compiler error: program cc1 got fatal signal 11 *** Error code 1 Stop. I've tried "make buildword" , "make -DNOCLEAN buildword" and just plain ole "make world" with no success. 2nd problem is, when I try to compile a new kernel it crashes also with pretty much different errors everytime. Keep in mind that I have had relatively "no" real problems until I reinstalled Win 95 so having said all that, my question is, is there a way to reinstall the slice or redefine the partition? Also, since it now looks like I'm going to have to "fully" reinstall Win 95 with format I know I will totally obliterate my slice. Is there a way to save my slice and partition info? I'm still kinda new to FreeBSD and Unix so try not to be to critical ... I am "trying" :) Thanks To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
