Okay, well, I have just received my Walnut Creek distribution of
FreeBSD 2.2.1, and I'm having a bit of trouble installing it. Here's the
deal:
I have a 1.2gig hard drive with Win95 currently installed. I have
Partition Magic to split it up (I'm only using about 550mb of it right now).
What I need to know is what the best way to divide everything would be, so
that I could read dos files while using FreeBSD. I know I should be able to
mount my dos partition, but that option doesn't come up in the label editor
when I install.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
