One of Apple guru's did get FreeBSD installed from a Dos partition. (
I'm so used to installing over the net now that this method was spooking. =
)
On bootup from the harddisk getty kept re-spawing and lots of the deamons
cored.
I'd like to see FreeBSD run on VPC, heck I would like it to run
on a 14CPU Sun Ultra 4000..but..
