Am I partitioning wrong, or is XP not compatable? If you're going to run FreeBSD you don't need Windows XP anymore. So the CD installation is quite easy. Just boot from the CD, delete all paritions and choose "use entire disk". Besides that, the install procedure is quite well explained in the documentations. regards, Manuel Burkihelp
