I am not quite sure how I would go about using a dos partition,
but then again I'm not quite sure if it is needed.  I have two
physical drives.  C contains dos/windows95.  I would like for D
to contain FreeBSD, and use boot manager on start up.  Can I just
install FreeBSD to D, and use boot manager?  Would a dos partition
be needed?  I am not really sure what a dos partition is, so
please explain this.  

Thank you.
