If you have room enough on the hard drive for it, yes. It is readily doable. The Handbook covers this well as do a couple of online publications and some FAQs. Look for 'dual booting FreeBSD'. One thing to note, Win98 and FreeBSd do not run at the same time. You reboot to get from one to the other. > 2) can i run .exe files with KDE 3.1 because when i launch a .exe file it > asks me what to program to use to it open with. There are some emulation utilities that may allow this. My mind is too foggy to think of a name at the moment. As far as I know, KDE doesn't have anything that will allow it. (But the emulation utilities could run in a window like other things.) Someone else is better to respond to the other things. > > ... > > if you answer these questions can u please answer them clearly and explain > the way i have to do the things thoroughly.

When you ask very broad or general questions, you will most often be referred to documentation - handbook, man pages, online FAQs and publications and archives. That is the way this community works. Once you have studied, then ask specific questions. ////jerry > > _________________________________________________________________ > Take advantage of powerful junk e-mail filters built on patented Microsoft® > SmartScreen Technology. > http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-ca&page=byoa/prem&xAPID=1994&DI=1034&SU=http://hotmail.com/enca&HL=Market_MSNIS_Taglines > Start enjoying all the benefits of MSN® Premium right now and get the > first two months FREE*. > > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
