User commands don't differ that much, but you'll be pleased with the ports system and the layout of a 'base' bsd install. The kernel build process is a relief comparing to linux, you'll only need to edit a simple text file. Furthermore, the way a system upgrade works is amazing according to Linux; Just a 'make world' and 'mergemaster' will upgrade it from source. I recommend reading the handbook, which explains lots of neat features in a very nice readable way. > > > Thanx. > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Yahoo!
