Yeah, that's not the book for newbie help.  I would recommend Greg Lehey's
"Complete FreeBSD" (note: I helped proofread the book and got a free copy
for it - but it's still a great book!). I also found "FreeBSD Unleashed" to
be pretty solid as well.

But my basic advice is to take a deep breath, take things step by step, and
ask (nicely!) here if/when you have questions.  Take a look at some web
sites, as there are lots of them out there with helpful advice. Check out
BSDForums.org for even more help.
