If you install FreeBSD over the existing C: (FreeeBSD slice name: ad0s0) partition, and pay attention never to touch the D: partition (FreeBSD slice name: ad0s1 or ad0s4, depending on D: being an extended partition), the _data_ on the D: partition will be preserver. Windows itself along with all of C: will be gone, though. HTH -Christoph Sold To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
