PLEASE FORWARD THIS TO THE TECH-GUYS. THANK YOU. I have a 4.1 GB and I have 1.8 GB left. I was planning to split my hard drive into two. C would have 3.3 and the new D drive would have the 800 mb. I was going to use my D drive for the UNix and the WIndows 95 on the C. I tried to use the dos fdisk, but it didn't work. FDISK wouldn't let me split the hard drive. Do you know why? ANother thing is when I try to install Unix, I get stuck at probing, you know when the blue screen comes up and it says that its probing. I read that I can scroll up and down using the Scroll Lock and I did and all I can do is scroll which told me that the computer didn't freeze but it wasn't moving either. I waited 30 minutes but it just stayed there. Do you know why? I have a pent.II 300, 64 mb ram, and 4.1 gb. Oh yea, and there was 21 conflicts and a couple of collapses but the book said that was ok, it just mean that the computer told itself that it was a generic version was used to identify my hardware. Anyways, please reply as soon as possible. THANKS AGAIN and HAVE A NICE DAY. :-) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
