Well for win95/unix you can use fips OR 2 real partitions. Use dos fdisk for the win95 or dos622 partition and then FreeBSD fdisk for the bsd partition. The default dual boot program for FreeBSD is booteasy. Be careful if you use fips and want to mount your dos partition. It can be iffy. Use 2 real partitions if you can. Regards Paul Walsh.
