I am installing FreeBSD. I have the drive setup and everything appears that its ready to go on-line and FTP the files to complete the install. However, when I press Alt+F3 to examine the connection I see the error: Can't create /var/run/tun0.pid No such file or directory. I also could use some more instructions on how to dial-up to the Internet and get the files. I assume I will dial up my local ISP and once connected then what? How do I send the commands to the modem for dialing?
