I'd like to try FreeBSD, but I have some problem hardware that I'm having 
trouble getting Linux on.  It's an AMD64 with an NForce ethernet, and an 
external Iomega Zip Drive plugged into the USB port.  Also, I want to 
dual-boot with Window XP, and I want read access to the NTFS partition.  Is 
it doable?
