Not being a FreeBSD GURU, and since I am totally brain-dead at the moment, I'm posting this to the group. I would hate to try and give advice that might result in this guy losing everything again. This is a reprise of a thread that started as "Windows 98 and FreeBSD Compatibility". ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: Re: Windows 98 Compatibility Date: Sun, 6 Feb 2000 12:04:52 EST From: Bellardd@aol.com I still need help. I had Windows 98 installed on my machine. I loaded FreeBSD Ver 2.2.5 which came with a book on Unix. During the install of FreeBSD, the Dos Partition was replaced. I assume this was due to that version of FreeBSD. I would like to still install FreeBSD, but a version that can dual boot with Windows 98. I have been up most of the night reinstalling my Windows and Y2K updates to get it back to par. If there is a known version of FreeBSD or Linux that will dual boot with Windows 98, please let me know. I'm determining whether to go to a full Unix system based on this test. I have so much Windows programs, I will take a while to obtain their functionality in Unix. Thanks for the help. ------------------------------------------------------- -- Walter in·tel·lec·tu·al n.
