Question: re: motherboard, here is quote from the bios readdme.txt for my (Abit VA6) motherboard: "Please be aware ! Flashing can not be completed under a Windows95/98 or Windows NT environment, you must be in a pure DOS environment" So, does that mean, that I should have a DOS partiton on the disk w/FreeBSD if I ever wanted to flash? Or, (I assume this would work(nah(?))), if I ever want to flash the bios I just could boot w/a dos boot floopy and then flash. But there would be no fat16 partitons on the disk itself - therefore what would happen - I couldnt boot to dos? I would have to have a dos partion? What do you think. Thanks sincerely. nota bene: http://www.abit.nl/english/product/va6.htm : the motherboard wwswite To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
