Date: 10 Sep 1993 02:05:52 -0500 Organization: Educational Computing Network, Illinois USA Lines: 13 Message-ID: <26p90g$ds5@uxa.ecn.bgu.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: uxa.ecn.bgu.edu I've tried to install FreeBSD twice now after I figured out that I had a bad FileSystem disk, but with no luck. First of all, everytime I try to install it, it nukes my DOS partition. This wouldn't be so bad (I have everything backed on tape) except that when I try to create another DOS partion, there is no room left (even though I know I've only partitioned half the drive to BSD). Anyone been able to get it install and coincide with a DOS partition? How?! After my first post, I received replies saying that there was a bug in the install, but no luck with fixes, etc.
