If it is fialing at the install process and looking for the tar file, you can tar xvf manually the file or you can do this Rename tar file fp30.bsdi3.tar.Z to fp30.freebsd.tar.Z Edit line 75 is fp_install.sh add FreeBSD*) machine="freebsd" ;; Then when it does it's uname to get the OS type, it will work in the install. I have never had to move the conf files for apache.. For some reason, I have also had to run the patched version of httpd.. but other than that, they work fine... I am in the same boat.. would rather not have them.. but also have to listent o the demands of the consumer. Hence... a couple of boxes with FP extensions loaded on them.
