Ive got the UNIX basics down and am now getting into more of the advanced stuff. While Im battering at the learning curve for linux, I thought Id give FreeBSD a chance on another HD of mine. Here's my question: How similar are linux and FreeBSD? Im running Slackware 7 w/out a GUI like X or KDE, and so am curious as to how similar the directory structures are, commands, etc. Itll be another week or two before Im able to install it, so, I thought Id get a heads up on now on how similar the experience will be. Thanks in advance, pini0n +---------------------------------------------+ | Craig Luchtefeld | pini0n@brokenmachine.org | +---------------------------------------------+ | My other computer is a 4000 | | node Beowolf cluster | +---------------------------------------------+ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
