I tried to copy FREEBIE as a text > file to a floppy so I could e-mail it but I couldn't make it work. Just take a floppy disk which was formatted in Windows (it means that it has FAT as it's file system =) and perform following actions (as root): mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt cp /(whatever dir)/FREEBIE /mnt umount /mnt Now you have it on ur floppy > 2) I followed the directions in the FREEBSD book.

(man sb). It says that you MUST add the line 'device snd0' in ur FREEBIE file to get sb driver work for you =). > Any help would be appreciated, even if it is pointing me to help so I > can > help myself. > > Thank you for your time > D.
