If you want to delete Win95, you can use the existing FAT. :) Otherwise you will need to partition. FIPS is availible to do this pretty well. > 2)Is there a Java Development kit 1.1 or better for FreeBSD? If not how > about the Java VM? Yes, JDK 1.1.5 is availible at http://www.freebsd.org/java/ > 3)Will GNUStep and the NeXT desktop clone run on FreeBSD? I know that WindowMaker and Afterstep both work on FreeBSD and are made to resemble NeXT. Both use GNUStep in their latest forms.
