I just installed FreeBSD 2.0-R from the Walnut CD-ROM on a 1 Gbyte drive. I created two slices one for DOS and one for FreeBSD. When I boot DOS, I run fdisk, and it shows the slice sizes correctly. However, the DOS dir command still reports free space relative to the entire disk. E.g. it says 100 Mbytes used, 900 Mbytes free. Is this just a DOS bug of some sort? I'm worried that DOS will overwrite sectors assigned to FreeBSD.
