I have just tried it once and there are probably a few things I haven't tried yet for sure but I was kinda looking for a direct route to install it with some other OS's like NT and OS2.1warp I haven't tried to partition it yet from PC-dos yet. I will probably try Partition Magic next. I would like to create an install that runs most of it on that second Cdrom? like (ln /cdrom ?) or redhat linux.... FreeBSD looks to be a very promising OS ...
