+++ Teilhard Knight [freebsd] [03-05-03 16:45 -0500]: | Hi. I am a very newbie to FreeBSD, and UNIX in general. I hope you do | not mind me asking very simple questions. I suppose, that due to the | three I have now, I can deal with them in a single post. | | First. How can I use my Ethernet card to configure an asdl connection? I | have spent a good deal of time in KDE looking for some way and I simply | do not find it. if you have install docs, /usr/share/doc/en/books/pppoe.html | | Second, my computer has a burner and a DVD, and the installation program | spotted both all right, and I can mount them all right and everything is | fine there. Problem is, the floppy is missing, nowhere to be found. run the follwoing command as root mkdir /mnt/floppy mount -t <fstype> /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy where <fstype> = msdos for fat | | And thirdly, can I use Linux packages in FreeBSD, and how do I install | them? yes you can install Linux packages in FreeBSD. read the follwing file /usr/share/doc/en/books/handbook/linuxemu.html | | I have no sound, but that seems to me a more elaborate question I will | deal with separately. | /usr/share/doc/en/books/handbook/sound-setup.html | Thanks to all those who can give a hand. | | | Teilhard Knight | The Extraterrestrial | Regards, Shantanu
