Are you saying there are potential problems with a "dangerously dedicated" HDD on a PC? I don't use Micros~1 products on any of my machines (acutally, I use nothing but FreeBSD) so I've assumed that there's no reason to do anything other than "dangerously dedicated". Am I wrong is thinking that?? Is this one of those issues where "if it boots, it'll be fine" or is it something that could bite me later?? -Bill To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
