Wong) Date: Thu, 19 Aug 1993 01:05:00 GMT Sender: news@latcs1.lat.oz.au (news) Organization: Comp Sci, La Trobe Uni, Australia Nntp-Posting-Host: latcs5.lat.oz.au Lines: 17 Hi, I will like to know if it is possible to have 2 fdisk paritions (as seen by DOS world) desinated for 386bsd. I have currently CP3544 HD with 150 MB for DOS 6.0 and the rest for 386bsd. Apparently, the 386bsd boots from its own dedicated partition. As I have just got a new HD for DOS, I would like to replace the DOS partition with 386bsd partition for extra file system space. Is it possible ? Since /dev/wd0 is already configured to recognize the other partition of the 386bsd! Do I have to reinstall 386bsd from scratch and resize the parition table to use whole disk ? Is there any other solution that can get around this ? What I dont't plan to do is to use the new HD for 386bsd, so please don't suggest that solution to me. Many thanks in advance! -- - wongm@latcs1.lat.oz.au
