In addition, existing DOS partitions are recognized, and by default, [Free]BSD is installed after them. Overall, installing [Free]BSD should now be much easier. The new install disks should work for installing NetBSD as well, though this has not been tested yet (please let us know!). As ever: MAKE A BACK-UP OF YOUR HARD DISK BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL BSD!!
