I find that the install program for this FreeBSD 2.2.6 is boogling my mind. first let me say I started off by spliting up my windows 95 partitioned area into two part's one part is 794 megs (The Windows and all the other programs from C:\), while the other part is 1054 megs now that's way way larger then I need for this linux platform and therefor i'm wasting huge amount's of memory on the now standard drive. Second I installed FreeBSD 2.2.6 once from the disc which had problems such as the xwindows wont set up properly on any setting (which to my utmost disappointment makes me incredible sad) , So I deleted that partition and then used fdisk.exe to partition an Extended DOS Partition then installed useing Setup.exe to install to a dos partition but I have no idea how to run the system. Every time I reboot and use the boot disk it takes into the install program for installing it to yet another partition, at this point I just wanna recombine my partition's and forget this ever was attempted. I Believe your product is great I believe the Xwindows and windows manger's makes it awsome and easy to use, but none of these things will work on my computer therefor I have no way to use your product so please help me in fixing the mess it has made. p.s. this was writen at 3:05am by a tried and frankly frustrated person so please excuse mispelling or miscapitialization.
