If you want to be able to access 5.2 partitions from 4.9 you should use UFS1 on both (the default being 2 for 5.x). Try browsing sys/ufs cvs or cvs-src@ arvhives, I vaguely remember a commit about a flag to help fsck for this kind of setup. > Anything special to take care of during installation (esp. when > installing the second FreeBSD?) > > Is it possible to use the same swap-partition for both instances of > BSD? Yes. You should however pay attention to core's produce but the other installation. -- IOnut Unregistered ;) FreeBSD user _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
