FreeBSD Partition HELP NEEDED! Date: Mon, 29 Jul 1996 09:53:10 GMT Organization: Infolink Communications (HK) Limited Lines: 26 Message-ID: <31fc89cf.898194@news.infolink.net> NNTP-Posting-Host: csd1-23.infolink.net X-Newsreader: Forte Agent .99e/32.201 This e-mail was originally sent to "Jordan K. Hubbard" <jkh@time.cdrom.com>. I have not recieve a reply yet so maybe you guys can help me out: I don't know if it was you or another person at freebsd.org, but that person told me that since I get a Write Error -1 , in order to install freebsd, I should make my freebsd partition bigger then my dos/win95 partition. Now my question is, how about if I have TWO hard drives. One hard drive mounted as C: , and the other hard drive as D:. The D: will have a FREEBSD partition and also a Windows NT partition on it. How big should my freebsd partition be now? Still bigger then the Windows NT partition since they are sharing the same hard drive or bigger then my C: which will have windows 95 and DOS. Please note that the FREEBSD distrubutions (2.1.5) will be installed from the C drive. Please reply by mail to fade@infolink.net if possible! Thanks.
