Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello: I have a UMSD, and I was thinking of intalling a laptop with a FreeBSD partition. The problem is that I haven't receive the laptop yet, and I don't have enough room in my own laptop....so I was thinking about the possibility of installing a FreeBSD on this UMS device, and using my own lapton to boot this little 128 Mbytes-FreeBSD. Do anyone know if this can be done ? PS: I only have Windows on my laptop :( -- JFRH. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
