Can you tell me what I need to do to download the files. Also I've downloaded the instructions for installing BSD but find them somewhat confusing. By now I am sure that you can tell that I am a first time user. I am taking a class at the local collage but it is almost impossible to get some time in the lab or class to get some hands on experiance with the program and I have a lap top at home that isn't being used for anything at the time and I would like to use it to familiarize myself with UNIX. I am about halfway throuth the class but I feel like I could get a better understanding of the operating system if I were able to do the practice exercise. Your assistance with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Needing help Grover To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
