Message-ID: <D4IuAH.6FI@freenet.carleton.ca> Sender: ao826@freenet2.carleton.ca (David A Hosten) Reply-To: ao826@FreeNet.Carleton.CA (David A Hosten) Organization: The National Capital FreeNet Date: Fri, 24 Feb 1995 20:30:16 GMT Lines: 27 I am just about to put either FreeBSD or Linux on my DX66, and have it share space with OS/2 and a small DOS partition. I recall reading posted notes saying that Linux and OS/2 are workable (as long as LILO sits 'beneath' the Boot Manager os OS/2.) Do FreeBSD or Linux need to be on one of the 4 possible main partitions, or would either settle for a logical drive under D: or E: ? Please send comments on your experiences, and possible solutions, to this address: s657134@aix2.uottawa.ca OR ao826@freenet.carleton.ca I'm particularly interested in comments from anyone who has OS/2 and FreeBSD installed; as I have been lucky enough to have read a number of comments on Linux/OS2 compatibility and coexistence.
