Perhaps he doesn't want to specify what the partioning would look like himself, unless he prefered to do it otherwise. The idea that he insist on a graphicals installation is implied by the reactions, not by the original poster. Personally I wouldn't mind if an additional install cd is available with a nice graphical interface. As long as the original, text mode / sysinstall is available as _default_, I dont't care if there is a ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ISO-IMAGES-i386/7.1/7.1-RELEASE-GUI-i386-disc1.iso sponsored by Fritz Kolberg [ and yes, he insist on paying for something which is free ] Jeroen Wojciech Puchar schreef: >>> as better than sysinstall. >> Once upon time, there was a Summer of Code projects set to develop a >> graphical installer for FBSD 7.x.
