But lets get you started: 1: FreeBSD is not Linux. Be careful with this you may get an earfull from Linux people if you mention this to them. :) 2: The boot disks you're speaking of are located on the CD, depending on what version you plan to install. A wealth of information is available through our online documentation, see this link: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install.html And that should be a good kickstart to have you well on your way. :) -- Tom Rhodes
