I want to run FreeBSD on one hard drive (the one with the overlay installed) and DOS on another hard drive (less than 400mb, so no overlay needed). I don't need a boot manager (although it would be nice). If I understand this correctly, what I should do is zap everything, remove all partitions, create a dos partition and install Win95 on it and then install FreeBSD. Then I will get the boot manager. --- Khetan Gajjar Visit at http://www.iafrica.com/~khetan/ UUNet-Internet Africa Operations help@iafrica.com or 0800-030-002
