Hello

I am New To Freebsd. I tried to create partitions for Freebsd using FDISK but It does not detect my disk correctly. The thing is I have a 37 Gb of Hard Drive; 5 Gb are allocated for Windows 98 (FAT32), ~23,5Gb for Windows XP (NTFS) and I have the rest of Disk partitionioned with Gentoo. I thought to use this partitions for Freesbd. That's what appears on Fdisk screen:

Disk name:ad0
DISK Geometry: 4865 cyls/255heads/63 sectors= 78156225 sectors (38162 MB)


Offset        Size (ST)        End        Name        PType        Desc    subty        Flags
0                     63            63                -            12         unused       0
63             10249407  10249469       ad0s1          7               fat       11
10249470   67890690  78140159       ad0s2          4          extended DOS, LBA  15
78140160        25200   78165359        -               12         unused      0

Besides I received a message as ad0 geometry is incorrect
Can somebody help me please?

Thanks
