Hi, My name is Eric I just bought the book "the complete FreeBSD". I'm using Win98 and Win2000 installed on the same hard disk. I wanted to install FreeBSD on the same hard disk, but it didn't work. It stop after I clic the "done" button after specifying my mouse, my card etc. . Is FreeBSD compatible with Win2000? Do I have to remove Win98 to make FreeBSD work properly? When I tried to install FreeBSD, I marked the option to make a bootdirectory to choose from my others OS. Is it this option that make FreeBSD unreable? Now, when I start my computer, I have the choice to start FreeBSD or Dos. When I choose FreeBSD, the computer make a "beep" sound and didn't start nothing. When I choose Dos, I have a second menu that appear to choose from my two different Windows systems (wich was my old boot menu before I install FreeBSD). How can I do to erase that first menu, because FreeBSD isn't working on my system for now, but the boot choices are still there. If you need more info on what I have on my computer or what I did to try to install FreeBSD, just ask me by e-mail. Thanks a lot. I can't wait using your OS version. P.S. Excuse my english, it's not my first language as you can see. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
