I have to reinstall BSD on a machine of mine, and I'm getting some vague warnings from a FreeBSD 'expert' (HAH!) friend of mine. (The reason I have to reinstall is - well, never mind, but my friend is never telnetting in again). He's saying that FereBSD won't create the file system unless the disk is formatted and clean, and that I have to format it from DOS, but that DOS won't format it if it had FreeBSd partitions, etc, etc. He never did tell me how to solve this problem. Yikes! Does anyone know what I should do? I couldn't find anything in the docs about reinstallation.
