I am afraid Sujit used Winblows #=A3!@~* fdisk. The fact is, **that**=20
fdisk only allows you to create **one** primary partition (and a=20
logical partition, if you like). No comment.

The following may be of help:=20
http://www.freebsd.org/~rpratt/41/index.html;
the multi-os tutorial, found at=20
http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/multi-os/index.html; freebsd on-line=20
manpages (eg fdisk) at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi=20

N.B. "ad" has replaced "wd" -- the latter is the HDs naming scheme=20
under FreeBSD 3.X.

Best regards,
Salvo
