I installed FreeBSD as whatever the default was supposed to be, and the only things it set up were moused (because I have a mouse, I suppose), httpd, indetd, syslogd, sendmail, cron, telnetd, and usbd (because there is a USB interface on the machine, I presume), as I recall. All of the processes put together use less than 0.3% of the machine. Compared to the incredible truckload of junk that any Windows installation starts up (especially NT/2000 installations), this was quite a breath of fresh air. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Paulius Bulotas" <paulius@kaktusas.org> To: <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Tuesday, November 20, 2001 12:22 Subject: installing minimal freebsd > Hello, > > I'm quite new to FreeBSD, and want to ask, is there any way to install only components which I really need (for example, no sendmail, no named, no kerberos and so on)? > And whats the idea of having openssl port, if there is openssl in main distribution (which is hardly to be left uninstalled, because all ports which depend on openssl, require one from base system, not from ports?) > > Regards, > Paulius > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
