Is it possible to do a DOS-partition install of FreeBSD 2.2 from my D:
drive instead of my C: drive?  The D: drive is on the same physical
disk as C:, but in a different partition.  I would like to create a
D:\FreeBSD directory with the distribution and then start up the boot
diskette, but I don't know how to make this work.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
