I've run freebsd on many different machines, and have 2 hard disk each 
about 200 megs both with freebsd installed. I used the *whole disk* for 
freebsd thinking i would never go back. 

Now i'd like to take those two hard disks and redo them to put them in a 
windoz machine for my daughter (13y/o and she *does* know unix!). This is 
an old 486-50dx machine, and it won't recognize the larger HD's out 
now...otherwise i would just buy a new one.

Of course a floppy boot to dos and the disks aren't recognized. Is there 
a simple way to convert them back to dos/windows? 

Thanks,

dave racette
