If you want to use 1 HD for FreeBSD and 1 for Windows, the partition magic
type inside FreeBSD will do the trick. However, if you want to divide 1 hard
drive between Windows and FreeBSD, then you will need to install Partition M

Can it sub-divide an existing NTFS partition into two partitions, one NTFS
and the other for FreeBSD?
