No, you can use tracks beyond 1024 for NON booting partitions fro FreeBSD.. you can slice the disk up so that unly the root partition of freeBSD is below 1024.. that's only 30 MB or so.. you can let other OSs use the rest of that low region.. > So if I understand it if I buy a 1.0Gb HD, and plug it on my existing IDE > controller everything will work fine if I use the entire disk for FreeBSD? > I'll get into trouble when I'll decide to partition the HD for 2 OS. >
