Bugs: We have a pr database of bugs open and bugs fixed for 2.0, but it's not available for general access yet. We hope to rectify that soon. 2. For a new installation, I would consider the latest 2.0 snapshot, available on ftp.freebsd.org. I cannot recommend that anyone use 1.x at this point due to legal reasons. 3. It's a complete reinstallation. Jordan
