Sorry, Forgot to post this to NEWBIES.
> 
> HI all,
> I bought a new hard disk and want to have WIn98 and
> FreeBSD.
> Using FDISK, I created 1 primary (2GB) and 1
> extended
> partition (8GB) for Win98. Installed WIn98.
> Everything
> was fine.
> WHile installing FreeBSD, the partition manager (or
> whatever it is called) recognized the first primary
> slice (or partition). Of the remaining 28GB, I
> allocated 10 GB for FreeBSD and proceeded with the
> installation. I wished to have my MBR left intact.
> 
> When I rebooted, I could see *NOTHING*. Just a '/'
> character. WHat could have gone wrong?
> 
> Any help will be greatly appreciated.
> Thanks
