Hi, I spent my second night without much luck trying to install a graphical X11 or KDE , I put cd number 1 in the cdrom drive and did the /stand/sysinstall then went postinstall and configure and installed all of the X86free stuff, and spent a long time down loading all kde stuff. When I got to X86free it gave me an error. another thing, when I log is as root to the non graphical the file system is not what the FreeBSD books says it should be. THere are no file is my dists directory, and when I try and mount the cdrom still can"T get to the file's on that cdrom when cd in to the cdrom directoy. I am wondering if I have done something wronge in the first installation? why does freeBSD not boot a Xfree86 , xterm, or KDE on the first installation? sorry for writing a long and somewhat unclear message but I am about to give up on the whole thing and use SUSE 7.0 jeremiah To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
