I love some of my dos programs. There IS a DOS emulator in the ports/packages collection, called pcemu, but I believe it jsut emulates at the 8088 level. I have heard that a more advanced DOS binary emulator is in the works, based on Linuix's and BSDi's emulators, but I don't know when or if this is going to happen. > > What about a dual partition.

I had a Win95 and a FreeBSD partition on a single ahrd disc for a while. > -- > Lemming of Willow Tree / Scrape / SUPERFUNK (a.k.a.
