Winboot is a nice little utility, which allows you to boot FreeBSD out of a running Windows 3.1. I don't know if it runs with Win95. You may find it on the 2.0.5 CD in the experimental directory. You can find it on fimp01.fim.uni-linz.ac.at in the /pub/soft/unix directory, too. Christian. -- Christian Gusenbauer cg@www.ati.khs-linz.ac.at
