Before I even attempt this, I just have a few questions; I would be very grateful if anyone could answer these: 1) Can FreeBSD be installed if the Hard disk it is to be installed on is of FAT32 format? 2) Will I be able to read UNIX formatted diskettes (so I can extract files eg: with bar xvfZ /dev/rfd0 )?
