Uli,

Thanks for the quick reply. Taking your advice leads to these
questions:

1) Which FS to choose for the Windoze 98 slice if one wants to be
able to mount it under FBSD to enable read and write data
transfer between windoze and fbsd?

2) Depending on 1), what options should one include in the
kernel?

Cheers!

Lucien
