I remember one of the FBSD's (a RC, but still) destroying my partition
table. That's the reason I ask. I know that I don't have to use the main
option (that's for the whole disk). But if there are no problems know of
with the sol installer, than I'm a little less worried. I have no space to
backup my XP and FBSD disk parts (at the moment).

And that's my point. That's why I asked about good books or reading
points, and that's also the challence I'm looking for.
FreeBSD runs great. No fun anymore ;-) I have replaced linux once and
never want to go back. But finding out the dark spots and in-and-outs of a
different OS has it's .. o well, you know what I mean.
