Hi everyone,
long time no see, but for the most part, things have been going quite smoothly.
Now I'm trying to bring an old computer back to life with new disks and new OSes, and that is giving me headaches on various levels.
As of now, I have an SSD with FreeBSD 12.1, and a SATA disk with Windows 10 on a small (500GB) partition. I want to use the rest of this disk as a data disk for FreeBSD, but I'm just not getting it done.
I was't able to (read: couldn't figure out how to) create a second partition on this disk, so I created it from Windows. I did not assign a drive letter or format ist. The next step would probably be to use
Thanks,
Frank
