My primary partition drive (C:\)(1.99Gb capacity) has about 750Mb already filled with files. I have LBA BIOS in my system. Does this mean, I don't have to worry about the 1024 cylinder limit and can freely install FreeBSD say after first 800Mb on the C: drive. I saw a statement at your freeBSD site at http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/multios/multios.html supporting this. I am confused about this partition problem. I would appreciate any help from experienced unix pro's Thanks in advance Sara saradausa@zdnetmail.com Free web-based email, anytime, anywhere!
