Date: 3 Mar 1997 07:34:54 GMT Organization: BigBrother PC Help Lines: 15 Message-ID: <01bc27a5$420bfbe0$6548cbd0@bigbrother> NNTP-Posting-Host: node099.intercomm.com X-Newsreader: Microsoft Internet News 4.70.1155 Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:36421 I am having a problem understanding the way FreeBSD defines partitions...This is what partitions I have in FAT: Primary = C: 350MB (Holding DOS and FreeBSD archives) Extended = 3 logical drives D: 350MB (Partition for FreeBSD when installed) E: 315MB (Holding Windows95) F: 40MB (Storage) I was wondering what does the "Fdisk" program in FreeBSD see, so I can properly format and intall FreeBSD. What partition should I choose in FreeBSD. Email Me please: bigbro@intercomm.com DAVE
