Hi all, I have a question about the install process for FreeBSD. I created a 293 meg. Partition for FreeBSD using F.I.P.S. and then formatted my new D: drive. I plan on installing FreeBSD from my C: drive/DOS partition. I boot FreeBSD and enter the Visual Mode/NOVICE install process. Then I come the 'fdisk' part and become very nervous. I'm presented with the following screen with the very last line HI-LITED. disk name: wd0 disk geometry: 1023 clys/32 heads/63 sectors = 2062368 sectors offset size end name PType desc subtype flags 0 63 62 - 6 unused 0 63 1459521 1459583 wd0s1 fat 6 6 1459584 600768 2060351 WD0S2 fat 6 6 2060352 2016 2062367 - 6 unused 0 My question is this, How do I know FOR SURE that the last line is the 293 meg/D: drive? Can some help me so I don't kill the DOS/WINDOWS/AOL C: drive partition? Can someone please help me, I'd love to get FreeBSD running this evening and start to learn the "World of UNIX."
