I have managed to create a partition for DOS/WIndows etc. (about 80 MB) using the fdisk program. However, I am unable to set second partition as active so that I can load UNIX. I am not sure that I am doing the right steps in installing 386BSD (IMO, the installation notes are rather cryptic for me to understand) I would very much appreciate any help from people who have successfully managed to install 386BSD on their PCs.
