You might want to refocus the site a little more, and draw attention to
this information.

Specifically, stick up a page that appears prior to the existing first
page on the site. Something like


             If you've heard about FreeBSD, and want to know 
                        more then _click here_
                 (takes them to the current home page)

 
             If you've just installed FreeBSD, but are having 
                      problems then _click here_
                      (takes them to errata.txt)

  
             If you're an existing user, and want to check out
              the ports collection, the online documentation,
                      and so on, then _click here_


Obviously the text needs work (and I'm definitely not advocating the use
of _click here_ under any circumstances) but you see my point.
