During it, I partitioned a 3.1 gb hd, into a 1.99 gig, and a 968 mb. I installed freebsd to what I thought was drive E:. However when I tried rebooting, the bootmanager is not propting me for a selection of win 95 or freebsd. I poked arounf in win 95, and found that my cdrom is loaded as F:. But if I go into dos, it changes to E:. Well, the main problem is that the thing I thought was E:, is gone, except it shows as a freebsd partition. But is not loadable in dos or win 95. How do I get this into freebsd? >How-To-Repeat: Uh, turn on the pc..... >Fix: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
