How big is the disk you are trying to install on? What else besides DOS and RedHat are installed on the disk? How is your disk presently partitioned? How are you able to move partitions around using fdisk? Please re-post and include the additional information, and am sure someone will be happy to answer your questions. Welcome to FreeBSD.
