    hi all,

    i'm currently running on a laptop and i wanted to test freebsd. i have a free
    partition with ~ 3 gb of space. the other partitions contain linux. how do
    i go about getting freebsd installed into that partition and booting without
    disturbing that *other* os ;)

    thanks
