I am completelt new to Unix installation ... Currently I have Windows 98
on a 20 GB computer. So I thought of installing Free BSD and partitioned
the system into 14GB/6GB ... (14 for windows) ... For this I had to
allocate around 1800 cylinders for windows. Then I installed Free BSD on
the second partition. But I cannot boot unix from the boot manager.. It
simply refuses to boot no matter how many times I press F2. On the
other hand Windows 98 (F1) is working fine ....

It would be noce if some-one can explain the reason and a solution to this
problem. Please elaborate your explanation as I am not very familiar with
the terminology and procedures.

Thanks in advance,
Hemanth Manda.
