What I found is that the best way was to setup bsd first, leaving a large enough partition for windows 95, then setting up Windows 95. After doing this I had to run the bsd setup again, going through disksetup to re-install bootany.sys, etc. Just make sure to setup the disk exactly as before(size of partitions, etc). I did this and have had no problems. In article <44kuue$581@darkstar.UCSC.EDU>, wholt@cse.ucsc.edu (Will Holt) wrote: >I am wondering the same thing.
