I had installed Version 4.3 of FreeBSD. I did a (Beginner) Recomended installation from a CDROM borrowed from a friend. Q: What is a STABLE version compared to a "non-stable version"? Q: How do I find out whether it is a STABLE version? Q: What is a build World? Also how are packages distributed in FreeBSD ( compared to RPM in Linux)? Q: Is CORBA supported in FreeBSD? Would appreciate a reply.
