this probably doesnt really belong on a fbsd list at all, but since Brian raised the subject:- advice to anyone making radical changes to a machine running win2k, before you start, take the 5 minutes to make a ERD (emergency repair diskette) so you can at least recover afterwards pretty painlessly if anything goes wrong the ERD is specific to your machine, so their no way to borrow one from another PC if u dont have one when the time comes that u would need it Mark jmdupx_@_yahoo.com On 2 Jan 2002, at 15:06, Scott Corey wrote: > Brian, > > The first place to start is: > http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/p277.html I > recommend that you read it thoroughly, before any install.
