Hola, 

I just got a version BSD 2.1 and I want to install it on my box
(p166MMX, 5.2 gig maxtor HD, 32sdram, 18X Cdrom) My drive is currently
segmented into 4 drives each one gig (used partion magic) I have set
aside G: for UNIX, does anyone have an idea how to make my machine a
duel boot machine, and install UNIX on my G: without having to wipe my
disk. Since this is my first try at UNIX I would need detailed
instructions. So if you know how and wouldn't mind typing or you know
somewhere I could look to find the information I need could you please
help me out. 

Thanks In Advance,
Nick (aka Grifter)
