I am using a Pentium machine with Seagate 2G IDE hard disk, the HD has divided into 2 partitions (1G and 1G). One for Win95 and other for FreeBSd 2.1. It works fine and stable since Apr. 95. When you boot the machine, it will ask you to boot Win95, FreeBSD or from another floppy disk. P.S. I am using Win95 Chinese Edition, Win95 English will work fine. I guess it :) Best regards, Geoffrey Ng
