Urgent: Creating a Partition in Win2K, then dual boot FreeBSD

-One physical hard drive.

-One primary partition with Win2K Server installed.

Rest of HD untouched.

I forget if it was critical for me to create the NTFS D: drive as an extended or primary, so FreeBSD does not crap on me with access to the rest of the drive when I go into setting up my slices, etc.

Anyone done this?

Thanks.
 
Just ghost your Win2K install before you do anything. 🙂

n0c is correct. FreeBSD needs a primary partition and will set itself to be the active/bootable partition if you don't watch yourself (I wasn't watching when I did my install 🙁).
