I would like to try FreeBSD but I know (almost) nothing about it. I don't have a spare computer to play with, so I've got to put it on my "main" computer. I've been lurking a bit, I have some CDs coming my way, but I have a question that I haven't been able to find an answer for: My setup is that I have 1 computer which currently boots Windows95 off sd0a and OpenStep (aka NeXTStep) off sd1a. I would like to put FreeBSD on sd2a and have it not touch the current setup. Is there a way I can make something like a boot floppy or a kick floppy or something that I can put into A:\ and when the machine boots, it says "Hey, goto sd2a and boot off that drive... ignore all the other drives." ?? If so, how? Thanks TjL To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
