I want to run OS/2 and DOS on my new system, which will have a 170MB hard drive. When finances allow I want to buy a second hard drive and would like to install 386BSD on that. OS/2's boot manager will allow you to boot from a partition on drive #2, so the question is, will 386BSD do that? If not what is the minimum sized partition which I would need to leave on drive #1 for 386BSD to boot from? Deryk Barker, Computer Science Dept., Camosun College, Victoria B.C.
