I have Windows XP. so am limited in using DOS. I have Partition Magic and
plan for it to make a suitable partition for Freebsd - Do I need to format
that partition (& how big should it be?) as FAT, FAT32, NTFS, LINUX,
.....? and does it need to be a primary partition? If I use the CD
installation, will it "find" the partition prepared by Partition Magic? I
am in the process of reviewing your online guidebook, but would appreciate
any additional guidance to enable me to safely put your OS on my
computer. I learned about Freebsd from my LangaListPlus newsletter and am
very interested in using it.
Sincerely,
George Paul Molzahn pmolzah1@tampabay.rr.com
ps: I think the CD is the way for me to install Freebsd (do you agree?) -
If so, how do I go about ordering it along with a handbook?
