Hi,

I have old 486DX66,  a 420M HD and a 1.6G HD.

Myquestions are:

1. Will the PC BIOS (I think it's pretty old now) limits FBSD to handle
the HD which is
 large than 540M ?

2. Supposse FBSD is installed in the second drive (drive D) and the only
booting sequece is A:, C:(according to the BIOS), will FBSD be able to
boot? Can Boot Manager handle this? Is Boot Manager always installed in
the C drive.

3. If  I choose to install everything(select 'ALL', 'All'... during the
process), how much HD space do I need? (My 420M HD seems not enough)

Thanks a lot,  JC
