I'd like to replace the Linux partitition with a FreeBSD installation. What is the easiest way to do this? I first installed w2k, then Linux, then used dd to peel the bootsector from my Linux-root-Partition, and then added this to c:\boot.ini. Could I just install FreeBSD on the Linux partition, then boot into FreeBSD, and copy /boot/boot0 over to w2k and then add this to c:\boot.ini? Or, is there a better way?
