All of the pieces for the machine shold arrive within the week, so I am eager to get going with this UNIX/X at home stuff. I have been looking around freebsd.cdrom.com, and am curious as to _which_ FreeBSD I should install. I figure I should stay away from _current, as that I am new to all of this. Any useful tips, pointers, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I am about to print out the Rel. 1.0 Installation Notes. Advice beyond this document will be recieved with thanks. Wish me luck! James
