Shah) Newsgroups: comp.os.386bsd.questions Subject: FreeBSD and Windows NT Date: 18 Nov 1994 12:14:20 -0500 Organization: College of Computing, Georgia Tech Lines: 21 Message-ID: <3aindc$fbr@boston.cc.gatech.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: boston.cc.gatech.edu NNTP-Posting-User: viren I need to get FreeBSD 2.0 and Windows NT to reside together on a machine. The FreeBSD installation is going to be a minimal one (it will have X tho) since its meant for people to get an idea of what FreeBSD feels like. I have a few questions regarding this setup: 1> What boot manager should I use? FreeBSD is getting approximately 150 MB out of a 1 Gig disk. Should I install FreeBSD first or NT? 2> What is the minimum space that I need to get FreeBSD up? How much swap space do I have to have [machine has 32 M RAM]. 3> Anyone have NT + FreeBSD sharing a machine? any problems getting them to share the machine?
