My news server is not working. Please forward this to the appropriate person. I tried to install FreeBSD on my 486 running Windows 95. I have two hard drives. My D drive is 170M. I decided to install FreeBSD on my D drive. I made a boot.flp disk and booted from it. I partitioned the d drive wd1. I chose the dual boot option ( probably my mistake ) I did not have time to get the full system via ftp, so I quit at this point. I can now no longer access my C drive or boot to Windows 95. When I boot with a DOS disk in A:, I am told I have no hard drives. When I run FreeBSD, I have access the the file system on D:. When I boot up with boot.flp, I get a message like this: F1 FreeBSD F5 disk1 Pressing F5 does nothing. Any advice would be appreciated.
