hi,

I have a 15gig drive with two partitions. one is 10GB the other is 5GB. =
On the 10GB
I have winME, I want to install freebsd on the 5GB. Well the problem is =
that when I=20
try to install FreeBSD and I am in Fdisk it only see's 2GB. I have no =
clue why it does.
It does'nt see the other partitions, even MS DOS see's the other =
partitons even if they
are not FAT. Can anyone be of service? I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you.=20
