I am currently running Windows XP Professional on a HP Pavilion with =
a 27.95GB hard drive which I've partitioned with FDISK. Windows is in =
the primary DOS partition (about 7GB) on disk drive C and the extended =
DOS partition had three logical drives (D, E, and F) defined in it; they =
are 7.3GB, 7.3GB, and 6.3GB respectively. I want to create my FreeBSD =
environment in the first logical drive (D). I know the starting and =
ending sector numbers so that I won't overwrite any data already on the =
drive. Does this sound reasonable ? And will I be able to install =
FreeBSD's boot manager to give me a choice of which OS I want to come up =
? I'd really like to do this right the first time.
