Hi There, I am very interested in installing the latest version of FreeBSD, since I am most likely to start running a non-commercial web server. But I have a couple of questions, which I hope that you guys can answer .. I am going to download the installation files via FTP, and then install the system from an ms-dos partition - but I am unsure of which directory I should download, because I noticed that if I download the entire 2.1.17-RELEASE directory I would get the same files several times? So which dirs should I download for a complete installation from an ms-dos based partition? And the latest version is 2.1.17, right? I am not interested in beta-code. I have some experience with Linux (mostly slackware distributions), so I hope that the step to FreeBSD isn't that big - and the FreeBSD distribution comes with complete XFree86, right? I know that I could probably find answers for most of these questions in the several readme-files, but unfortunetaly I don't really have the time here at work. So .. Thanks in advance, Lars \\\|/// \\ - - // ( @ @ ) +--------------------oOOo-(_)-oOOo-------------------------+ | Lars Falch webmaster@dbergstrom.dk | | Supporter http://www.dbergstrom.dk | +------------------------------Oooo------------------------+ oooO ( ) ( ) ) / \ ( (_/ \_) "Whoever controls what you see controls what you think."
