I've used UNIX some but am confused as to how to go about getting the freeBSD and then installing it. I been reading here about FTP sites that have source code but is installation like a DOS install, where you must boot the machine with a diskette and then keep feeding in floppys? Any help or pointers to FTP sites for FAQ's/programs would be appriceated. Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Ron Porter Univ.
