Hi, Finally I succeed in using DOS partition and ftp to install the FreBSD.
But now I have a problem about the OSBS.

        I use the OSBS20B8.EXE to be the boot manager. I am VERY sure that I
succeeded in installing the FreeBSD, but now, when I reboot, the OSBS can't
recognize my FreeBSD. It said "No Operation System..." when I press return in
the FreeBSD choice.

	My configuration is:
1st HD: 850MB, all DOS
2nd HD: 1GB, now all FreeBSD(but I only use 620MB to partition)

	Does anyone have similar experience? Also, I found I can't uninstall
this OSBSBETA. What should I do now? Please help me. Thanks.

*by the way, when I partition my 2nd HD to be FreeBSD, should I make it 
bootable or not??
