The last time I looked--about 6 months ago--FreeBSD requires a file system that

an ext4 or NTFS file system, or some other fs that
Linux can read? I'd like to try it out, but not at the expense of having a disk
that nothing else can read, including GParted.
Good question. I haven't gotten that far yet. I read in the books that their
file system is somewhat different from other people.
But *surely* they can read an old PC-DOS file. Everybody can do that. I'm
trying to get XFCE going, but I'll stick a FAT-16 thumb drive in it in the
morning and see what happens.
Perhaps BCD can read a DOS file. It's the _other_ way I'm thinking of. I
want to be able to access BCD from Linux or Windows, and vice-versa--
access Linux and/or Windows from BCD. Anybody know if this is possible,
and if so, how?
