X-Nntp-Posting-Host: chainsaw Message-ID: <DHH185.KFs@network.com> Sender: jeh@chainsaw (Jeff Henning) Organization: Network Systems Corporation Date: Fri, 3 Nov 1995 14:21:40 GMT Lines: 15 Greetings, I am currently in the process of buying a tower PC but I am faced with the decision of going with SCSI or IDE type disks. I want to install windows 95 on 1 disk and FreeBSD on a second disk and be able to boot from either. This is not a problem with SCSI but it is considerably more expensive than IDE. Does anyone have this type of configuration set up with IDE drives? [i.e. windows 95 and FreeBSD on separate physical devices] The so called "sales people" from Zeos I talked to weren't very convincing when they said this was not possible. Also, could someone point me to the FAQ for this newsgroup if one exists? Thanks much. Jeff
