Hi,
the topic of this mailing-list is "Discussions about the use of
FreeBSD-current".
Your question, related to installing something on a Ubuntu Linux, is off-to=
pic.

Regarding PicoBSD, you seem didn't understand what is a PicoBSD image.
Read this for a better understanding of PicoBSD:
http://people.freebsd.org/~picobsd/old/picobsd.html
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Dpicobsd

You can't install a PicoBSD image on your Ubuntu, but you can run a
PicoBSD image inside a virtual machine from your Ubuntu=85
But don't ask the question "How to run a PicoBSD disk image on my
Ubuntu" here, because this question will be off-topic too ;-)

Regards,

Olivier
