I have printed out your instructions but I am wel make sure there really is nothing on that drive if you want to install to it. It will be easiest for you if you just install to the whole drive. Dont choos dangerously dedicated. When you see the list of drives to install to, it should be the second one. Make sure you have all the data on both drives backed up because if you choose some wrong options you really could wipe a lot out. > stuck on the "arch and version". Where do I obtain this information. Any Well a pentium is an i386 architecture and you probably want 4.7 release for now. The instructions really are in http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html so if you have more questions you may want to try to describe your problem a little more clearly and show what section in the install instructions is confusing you.
