>Release: FreeBSD 4-STABLE i386
>Organization:
Private FreeBSD site - The Netherlands
>Environment:
4.3R install CD
>Description:
The FDISK Partition Editor of sysinstall does not display that
it also supports 'W' for a forced write of the fdisk table.
But it does.. And this is really practical in some circumstances
(like installing 2x FreeBSD on the same disk; which needs
fooling sysinstall by changing partition types)
>How-To-Repeat:
boot install CD
