Can someone give me a detailed explanation of steps to take? I have a 40gig hard drive. I don't want to destroy my current installation until I have the details down. I eventually don't mind destroying my current installation of windows XP. So far, this is what I have figured out: 1. Fdisk the hard drive to destroy current installation. 2. Install windows XP on a 20gig hard drive (or however much I choose). 3. Install FreeBSD... That's all I know. I need the details for the rest, such as: when I get to the FreeBSD bootloader options what do I choose? Basically, as much information (details) as you can provide I would greatly appreciate. Thank you very much. -Bishop _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your messages with MSN 8.
