I just got FreeBSD on CD-ROM and have about 3 gigs of space on hard drive zero in which to install BSD. I also have a secondary 340 meg drive (drive 1). Both are IDE. Unfortunately, the large drive is partitioned with one big Win95 partition, and FreeBSD won't let me create a BSD slice on it. Installing FreeBSD to the D: drive won't give me enough free space. Any suggestions? Is it possible to make my DOS partition smaller so BSD will have some space on it? Thanks for any info you could pass along to me... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- William K.
