hi..
    after hearing about how great freebsd was, i decided to try it.
so far i've had nothing but troubles in getting it to install, from the
install script not
really working, to the xf86config file being lost, to just a general not
workingness (?)
of the whole thing...

the first time i tried to install, i decided that installing everything
would be a good way to
check out the os and how it worked...i figured that with 1.5GB i
wouldn't have any
problems with space...guess i was wrong. so i did the next best thing. i
did the ole
pick and choose routine and went with things that i knew that i'd use
and that have
worked well in the past for me while using linux. once again, out of
space.
i'm beginning to wonder about this process, cause i have an ENTIRE
distro. of
slackware in almost the same amount of space. what am i doing wrong
here?

anyway, what i'm getting at is that any suggestions or pointers that
anyone can offer
outside of the manuals on the freebsd page would be greatly appreciated.

thanks for your time

brian
