I'm getting ready to reinstall FreeBSD on a new EIDE disk that will be
shared with Win95.  To set up the 'dos' partitions prior to installing
FreeBSD, I use the Win95 program fdisk.  At one point it asks whether I
want to use the more-native Win95 file system or the more-generic 'dos'
file system, warning that other operating systems may not like the Win95
system.

My question is this, if I use the Win95 file system (32 bit?), can I
still read/write from/to the disk from the FreeBSD world?  Or will this
nasty warning that Micro$oft is giving come true?

Thanks!

- Larry
