HI FreeBSD Gurus!!!


I have a win95 computer, and wanted to give FreeBSD a try (to actually use
it for some time...), the problem is that I don't have enough space on my
IDE hard disk, so thought about making a FreeBSD Jaz Disk....

After disabling my IDE drive (CMOS Setup) and enabling Jaz's bootable
option, i usually get the os on the jaz disk (tried it on w95 , and
DOS/wfw).......

When trying to install FreeBSD, it DETECTS MY IDE DRIVE (isn't it
disabled???) and IGNORES MY JAZ!

what can I do???

(all i want is to install FreeBSD on a JAZ... and use it when I need
it...)


thank you, 
            Osama
