I have an ASUS TX-97 with an AMD K6-233 running Winblows 98 (for my nine yr-old), Red Hat 5.whatever, and FreeBSD 3.0R withour incident. I use OS/2's Boot Manager because I have plenty of OS/2 licenses (and it comes with Partition Magic, too). All the problems I've had with Win98 have been Microsoft's fault... Unix systems measure "uptime" in years, Winblows measures it in minutes. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
