I've got 3 OS's on my 800MB drive, Win95, FreeBSD-2.1 (stable non-changing unix environment), and FreeBSD-current (development environ with OS sources on it that is *very* tight on disk space.) I had to double-space the Win95 partition to get it to work, but it does. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to squeeze X onto the FreeBSD installations due to disk space. > Anybody know where I can get 8.5mm tall 2.5" IDE > drives?

You may try out Japan Palmtop Direct, which is who we bought our Librettos from before they were sold in the U.S. http://www.mmjp.or.jp/jpd/frames73.htm Nate
