Someone I know tried installing Slackware on a Thinkpad R52 to create a triple-boot system (MS Windows and FreeBSD 6.2 as the other two, already present on the system). The Slackware install didn't get very far (the installer is less than helpful -- wouldn't recognize a swap partition at all), but apparently it got far enough to break the FreeBSD install. Any tips, hints, and suggestions about how exactly to go about fixing the FreeBSD install (without overwriting the home partition and losing the installed system configuration to minimize time lost getting things back to "normal") would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. -- CCD CopyWrite Chad Perrin [ http://ccd.apotheon.org ] MacUser, Nov. 1990: "There comes a time in the history of any project when it becomes necessary to shoot the engineers and begin production."
