I know more and more people who switch from Linux to FreeBSD. I've run
Linux since version 0.9 (>3 years ago) and recently switched to
FreeBSD, and I'm very content with it. It is much better, much easier
to install and much more consistent and easier to maintain.
Aparently you have had dumb luck with installing Linux, since you're
too lazy to decently read the installation instructions (or too
stupid). Otherwise you would have been able to install FreeBSD easily.
