I have been trying to install FreeBSD to the 2nd partition of my disk for several weeks now, with no luck. Here is the backstory. I have a 500GB disk, partitioned into 5 100GB partitions. I have PCBSD in the first partition. I had tried to put PCBSD in the 2nd partition an save whatever was in the first, but finally gave up. Now I would like to install FreeBSD into the 2nd partition and am having the same problems. The documentation (the way I read it) would imply this is possible, but FreeBSD seems to want to overwrite the PCBSD in the first partition. So, what am I missing? What do I have to do to get the new installation in the 2nd partition. -- Reg.Clemens reg@dwf.com
