Hi All,
I have a FreeNAS box, with version 7.2.8191 (latest stable from 7.xx) and I now have it installed on a 5 gig partition with an 8 gig swap space. On the rest of the disk I'd like to build a normal FreeBSD 9 install.
The disk is 250 gig SATA in a HP Proliant Microserver. The rest are dada disks currently used by FreeNAS (ZFS version would mismatch with v9RC3 but for now I wouldn't use the data disks with the new install).
I am not familiar with multibooting two separate FreeBSD instances, would really appreciate some insight. As far as I know there could only be 4 slices on one disk, but the 8.2 installer automatic partitioner creates 4 slices for itself alone...
Many thanks,
DanZi
