I am interested in making an old 486 pentium upgrade machine into a =
freeBSD workstation.  It only has a 200MB hard drive.  The system bios =
will not recognize drives larger than 512MB.   Could you be so kind to =
tell me if I can run freeBSD using X11 on such a small hard drive ?  =20

Thanks ! =20
