So far, the only thing mentioned either in the install notes or in the various postings and followups have been related to making NetBSD co-exist with a DOS partition. I'd like to make NetBSD (of 386BSD for that matter) co-exist with OS/2 via OS/2's bootmanager. Has anyone managed to to this? If so, how about a short "cookbook" description as to how you used OS/2's fdisk to accomplish this, and what offsets and disk values one needs to note during the process. -- Rolfe Tessem | Lucky Duck Productions rolfe@ldp.com | 96 Morton Street (212) 463-0029 | New York, NY 10014
