Hi Doc developers
Ramu Chakravadhanula <boys21century@gmail.com>	(cc'd)
asked on 
	<freebsd-questions@freebsd.org>
here
	http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/mid.cgi?BANLkTinQ0Y-wKWJ7RZrqH08HUVQuVv_Mbg
for help installing FreeBSD as a 2nd OS after another OS already installed.

A frequent desire, not so well covered in docs.
I wrote a new page
	How To Install BSD On A PC With Another OS Already Present
	http://www.berklix.com/~jhs/txt/install_bsd.html
& linked it to freebsd.org pages for
	2.3 Pre-installation Tasks
	2.6 Allocating Disk Space

Ramu kindly wrote he found it useful, so would you consider:
	Linking to it ?, Or 
	Absorbing material from it into your other pages ?

I'll later improve it,
& add a section re. ntfsresize for emigrants from MS/XP/W7.

I did not send a send-pr, as I guess its better to discuss how/ where
etc.  PS I'm not sub'ed to this list (just to about 30 other FreeBSD
lists though ;-) ) , so if you will, leave me on CC line. Thanks.

Cheers,
Julian
