It is Gateway 2000 (P-90) with 1Gb IDE drive. I successfully installed the following OSs as follow - DOS-Windows on C: 350MB partition Windows NT 3.5 on D: 350 MB partition 320MB is unused partition Then I tried to install FreeBSD from Walnut Creek CD, but FDisk could not see the unused partition as a separate partition, it recognizes the DOS (350 MB partition) and the second partition it recognizes is 680MB partition (Windows NT + Unused partition) ! So how can I tell FreeBSD to install itself on the unused partition ? I appreciate any info you can give me (e-mail please) Thanks, --Rajesh. prba001@atai.epri.com
