After I split my hard drive, I noticed that the 293 meg was not accounted for on my C: drive. Like a ding-dong I formated my newly greated D: dive. What is the best way to get this 293 meg unformated so FreeBSD can use fdisk against it. Should I just us the restore utility that FIPS has and go back and re-partition my hard drive again. Or, if I continue with the FreeBSD install will it wipe this D: clean and fdisk it? thanks in advance bob brozewicz To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
