I've been trying to install Free BSD from a CD Rom, and I don't 
understand some of the instructions.  I have a DOS based system with 
lots of hard drive space.  However, I only want to reserve 100 MB for 
Free BSD.  I don't understand whether I have to use the FIPS command 
that comes on the CD rom, or if I need to configure a drive using the 
FDISK command.

Can you help me to understand how I can do a configuration using the 
install system that comes with this disk?  It seems to me as though 
using the installation command makes the system reserve all its' free 
space for FreeBSD, and like I said, I only want to use about 100 MB.

Any help you could give would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Frank Weinstein
