Too many questions on wrong list Grant, Install BSD & try it! Not that questions & answers aren't interesting, but on the wrong list. Please read the list charter for advocacy@ you got when you subscribed. Those with time & interest to read a list with individual questions are subscribed to questions@. Newbie questions belong on questions@, not on advocacy@. As you appear to not yet even be commited to being a newbie, you're over quota on advocacy@ "Compare this & that" questions can be politically loaded, often asked by trolls, not that I'm suggesting you are, but its happened before, & people may be walking on egg shells, trying to answer all your questions diplomatically, but sooner or later an egg shell may burst, to reveal those aren't safe chicken eggs but hide the snappy fire emitting jaws of Jurassic Park raptors ;-) I don't want to see flames from accidents between *BSD (or Debian). advocacy@ is to eg plan advocacy & PR campaigns & media contacts/ promos etc to attract a mass of interest in FreeBSD, It is not time effective, or the right forum, to here support individual non user questions. Please subscribe questions@ read http://freebsd.org more, then post to questions@freebsd.org Thanks. Julian -- Julian Stacey.
