Note also that, > although this is so "dangerous", it has never bitten me on any system. So far I had no problems with dangerously dedicated mode. As I usually use FreeBSD on dedicated server hardware, I prefer the "dangerously" dedicated style. => Add me to the list of people who'd like the "dangerously dedicated" option to stay in. > What is it about this particular topic brings out such irrational > emotions in you and others? On my part I am very calm (for now). I see it this way: on FreeBSD I can choose if I want to use M$ partition table or not. This is what I call freedom of choice, and I don't want to loose it, if there are no substantial reasons to do so. Currently I don't see any.
