I would like to install FREEBSD on a hard drive which also contains a DOS partition and a LINUX partition. The only free space is out at the end of the drive, past the 1024 cylinder mark. Does this pose a problem for FREEBSD ? and, if so, is there an easy way to get around it ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
