I am trying to install FreeBSD with WIN95 on an IBM thinkpad 760EL
I can install FreeBSD on its own but when I try to share the hard disk
with dos (50:50 partition) the boot manager displays symptoms as
described in the manual e.g F?.
The hard disk is 810MB and formats to 774MB (Or close to this value).
I don't know the disk geometry. FreeBSD boot up floppy says it is:
1575 cyl:16 heads :63 = 1587600
When I installed FreeBSD on the whole drive and entered the FreeBSD
Fdisk it said the geometry was 120:210:63 = 1587600
I'm not that clever on all this stuff,
can you help ?
