Message-ID: <Pine.A41.3.95.990129182851.191394A-100000@is2.dal.ca> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi! I just bought a FreeBSD CD-ROM from Walnut Creek, and I want to install on my new computer(IBM Aptive E-series 504) which has been pro-loaded Windows 98. The hard drive is pre-formatted with FAT32, and the computer comes with a DVD-ROM. I want to do a dual-boot with FreeBSD and Windows 98. Is it possible? If so, please show me how, or point me to the right direction. Also, does FreeBSD recoginze DVD-ROM since I want to load the FreeBSD from there? If so, how can I do that?
