Many tools in the /linux root depend on features of the Linux kernel, and while you are booted into a FreeBSD kernel those features won't be available. You might try various tricks with the Linux compatibility of FreeBSD, but nobody can guarantee that everything will work as expected. > Anyways, I am running on a small network and am tring to figure out > how to name ip address so that I can do things like ssh laptop and > it work. You can always install a DHCP server to one of the machines of the local network, and use dhcp-client to grab addresses off it. Then a local name server can assign whatever names you feel like to the IP addresses. That's one option. Another option is (if all the machines of the local network are running UNIX) to use /etc/hosts files that you copy around, and avoid running a local name server. > Also, as I have disscused before I have a IDE CD-RW drive and can't > get SCSI emulation to work, which I now just accept.

You should be able to convert mp3 or other audio formats to .wav files and then use: # burncdd -f /dev/acd0 audio lala.wav koko.wav fixate For more details on burncd options, look at the manpage.
