If the FreeBSD CD is formated properly you should be able to see the CD's directory structure using windows explorer. If you can not do that, you did not choose the option to burn the CD from an ISO image. Burning from an ISO image is directly writing each track. On Sat, 8 Jul 2006, Walt Hay

Unless you're really short of hard disk space, I'd say that this is a bad idea. Multiple partitions give added stability and security. The sole disadvantage of using multiple partitions is that you might not allocate enough space on one particular partition and so it could fill up - therefore, you
