I have a Sony VAIO PCG-F430. The only two reasons remaining for it to have Win98 on it are: 1) to download images from my Casio QV-2000 camera and 2) so I can plug it into my television and watch DVDs on something larger than the TFT display. The camera, I can live without until I get around to figuring out how to do that. The DVD playing is a requirement of the wife, and is, as such, non-negotiable. :) I could have it dual boot, I suppose, but I'd rather it just run 4.5-RELEASE like my desktop machine. (which, btw, upgraded without a hitch, if you don't count me accidentally leaving the sound out of the kernel config the first time. Great job, FreeBSD team!) Also, I only have a "recovery disk" for Win98, not the actual installation disks, so setting up a dual boot situation might get ugly. -- Carl Tucker cft@panix.com flestrin@worldnet.att.net tuckercl@phnsy.navy.mil To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
